<p>One thing that has yet to be pointed out, as I understand it each freshman is first randomly sorted into one of the three yards. It is after this that your housing request will even be read. So right there, you have a 2 out of 3 chance that you are NOT part of the union dorm’s yard and in a yard with fewer singles.</p>
<p>D was in a suite that combined into a super suite. She had three roommates, 2 bedrooms, and common room that connect to the second suite of 4 via a private hallway with common bathroom. It had pros and cons. By the end of the year she was looking forward to her upperclassman housing which should be a double w/ study and bathroom, but at the same time I don’t think she would have traded getting to know her roommates (even though she did not block with any of them).</p>
