Communal Bathroom Situation?

I lived in ruby freshman year. Ruby specifically has two mens and two womens bathrooms, with one smaller (1 shower) and one larger (3 showers) bathroom per gender (if I remember correctly). There are no good places to leave shower caddies or clothes in the bathrooms. Most people carried caddies and walked to and from showers in a towel (I don’t remember anyone with a bathrobe).

There are good things and bad things about Ruby. I think it tends to be a fairly social dorm. It has two long narrow hallways. It’s very centrally located, right across from Bear’s Den, the Swamp, and is one of the closer dorms to main campus. Thus it can be kinda noisy. I think in general people became more fond of it over time, despite its flaws.
