<p>I believe that most dorms (at least on the Case campus) are set up so that there are about 10 people per bathroom fixture (ie a floor of 40 people will share a bathroom with 4 stalls, 4 showers, and 4 sinks) so really, sharing a bathroom with 6 people is a good deal. Recently we’ve been having plumbing problems in my building and have been down to 1 shower and 1 stall for 18 girls, and it really has not been a problem (I am in one of the oldest dorms on northside, and I believe that they are fixing things this week during spring break).
And although the rooms look tiny, it’s really not bad. I am in a single that is about the same size as the southside singles. The size and shape of the room does limit how the room can be arranged, but I have found that having the privacy and quiet of the single room to be well worth being slightly cramped.</p>
