The dorms I’ve seen are all pretty nice. You’ll get assigned one the first year, but after that you get some choice. My son said the athletes tend to choose the side of campus near the gyms and playing fields and the “artsier” students tend to choose the other side, near the theaters and art museum. Current students can correct me if I’m wrong.

The food is really pretty good and the student center, where the dining hall is, is gorgeous, with flags from all the countries of current students hanging. There’s probably a picture on the website, but it’s prettier in person. One lounge area has an enormous fireplace and really comfy couches.
