<p>Can any experienced Exonians tell me what “shared showers” are at Soule Hall? We’ve read that Soule is the only dorm on campus with that arrangement. Is there any privacy? Just want our son to be prepared what to expect…</p>
<p>I asked my son and he didn’t know the answer to your question. However, he did say the gym showers are open/shared so I guess it is possible that soule is the same. He should have received a name with an interim advisor, you could email that person and ask this question. I don’t think they would mind such a straightforward question from a parent! Good luck to your son!</p>
<p>FWIW, the term “shared showers” at Choate simply refers to the fact that the showers reside in the shared/communal bathrooms on each floor. The showers are individual stalls with curtains, but they are “shared” by all who use that bathroom on that floor. So, “shared” refers to the degree of access not the degree of privacy. I’ll bet this describes the shower arrangement at many schools.</p>
