<p>Congrats! </p>
<p>I lived in Dascomb my first year and switched out. I liked the community, but I needed more space. Changing to a divided-double (as opposed to Dascomb’s open doubles) was simple, and I kept my friends. I think that first year dorming is important because it’s so social, but it’s nice to take a breather from it. I’d try to have another group of friends who aren’t in the dorm. Is your son a really really social person, or does he like to have his own space? </p>
<p>Themes: Disorder. Cheer. Company. Booze. Late-night fun. </p>
<p>Location: Close to class/food, but like CurlyFry pointed out, it’s a small campus. </p>
<p>Pros: Community instantly.
Cons: Community constantly.</p>
