<p>No one can advise you on an RLC w/o really knowing you. It’s too personal. I am willing to advise you NOT to room with a friend. I’s cool to choose the the same RLC if you want to but you complicate your llife as a frosh by having a friend be your roommate. There are a couple threads on this subject on the college life board I suggest you do a search. The only advatage is that you know them ahead of time but that can become a bigger disadvantage over time.</p>
