<p>Torrey Hall is LOVELY, that was my first choice for this year’s dorm! It’s a little far from the other dorms and from Blanchard, but VERY close to the academic buildings. Also serves hot breakfast and Grab-And-Go lunches during the week, plus AWESOME M&Cs! The rooms also have a tendency to be MASSIVE, if slightly unattractive.</p>
<p>For 1837, agree with what everyone else has said: a little far, a little unattractive, but my gf lived there last year and loved it; common areas are also quite nice. It’s also got great access to Prospect, easily best dining hall on campus. Sadly, your best bet for classes is to pack everything in the morning and not plan to go back to your room until afternoon.</p>
<p>Dickinson, while definitely out in the boonies, is well-regarded for its seclusion from the hustle and bustle of main campus. Since it houses only upperclassmen, though, there’s plenty of people around doing stuff. And if you have a room with a balcony, LUCKY!</p>
