Dear jwriter90 : Medeiros is outstanding and provides some of the best housing on upper campus. In addition to being with other Honors Program students who opted for Honors Housing, you will be with folks who are generally academically and socially balanced.

As said by beanieboo, there are three sections, “A”, “B”, and “C”, with each section divided in half. Each building has several “half flights” with girls and guys dorming the half-flight apart.

The upper floors can be very warm - particularly in the first two weeks of class. Be sure that you bring several BOX FANS that can be placed into the windows for additional ventilation.

Bathroom facilities are fine and serviced at least weekly so no problems there.

The common room on the first floor is a great natural gathering place for movies, sports, and other group activities. Each dorm will gain its own flavor over the year and the common rooms will become a center for activity.

Be sure to bring various game consoles and guitar hero - you will be amazed at the number of friends you will make!

Good luck with your first year!
