<p>Sloan and Virginia are both co-ed dorms in the historic neighborhood. Some of the halls are very social – open doors, students in each others’ rooms, etc. Some aren’t – it just depends on the mix of kids. There aren’t common areas there but the rooms are big and students hang out there. My daughter loves living there – loves the location in the middle of everything and the feel of that part of campus with the big oak trees and older buildings. She wouldn’t trade it for anything. I haven’t seen Global, but from what I hear they are beautiful, with common rooms that have TV’s and kitchens. I don’t think you can go wrong either way; my daughter’s friends live all over campus and they are all happy with where they are living.</p>
<p>Not sure how much truth there is to this, but there is a rumor going around that students will not be able to request individual dorms next year, just neighborhoods (Historic or Global) (Daniely and Colonnades will be mostly sophomores, from what I hear). I’m sure there will be information about that at the admitted student weekends in the spring. </p>
