Dorms "and what not"

Interested transfer student into CALS for Fall '09-'10 and I had a question about dorms and what not. Can anyone recommend some of the dorms specific for transfer students on I think the West Side of campus? I’ve just been reading up on a bunch of the buildings and I’d just like some second opinions. What are the better dorms to jump on if you’re coming in as a transfer student? Is the one entirely transfer students a good call what with them experiencing the same things?

And a classic question, I’ve seen tons of things on the website about the “lottery”: is that the only method of them deciding your roommates, random? Any chance of requesting with someone I know who will also be a transfer student?

Obviously it’s not that big of a deal, who wouldn’t want to jump into the full college experience and room with new people? I’m just thinking from the excited prospective student’s perspective.
