<p>I need to defend Bingham’s honor. It isn’t that bad. The rooms are not that small at all, our common room is spacious, we have a lot of singles (my suite had 4 singles - maybe this is only the Calhoun side of Bingham, or maybe just my entryway), we have one of the 2 laundry rooms in the basement, elevator in the tower (which makes moving in and out A LOT easier, even if you have to cross over on the 5th floor), and the Chaplain’s Office (with free ice cream and goodies) in the basement. </p>
<p>Vandy is not THAT amazing. Yeah the wood paneling is cool, but their common rooms are not that big, considering they have to put their desks in there because there is no room in their TINY doubles (they actually rival LW).</p>
<p>LW is “bad,” but social. Farnam, Durfee, Lawrance and Welch (to me) seem so similar - in-suite bathroom (which means they have to clean them), big common rooms, decent number of singles. The princess suites in Welch, though, are supposed to be amazing, despite having to trek to the 4th/5th floor to them.</p>
<p>In sum, I really think they’re a lot similar than you would think (except for Vandy and LW).</p>
