Housing options at Northwestern

<p>For NMQ:
“Mostly everyone is a sophomore who already has an established group of friends and isn’t looking to make relationships with freshman. I IMPLORE YOU to NOT LIVE IN NMQ.”</p>

<p>For SMQ:
“At SMQ not only do you get to live with a roommate but also with mice. The water fountains often don’t function, the showers often don’t get hot water, the ceilings leak with water from the bathrooms above, the vending machines steal your money and so do the laundry machines and there is no machine to put money on your WildCARD in SMQ.”</p>

<p>“It’s a shame that we have to pay thousands to live in such a horrible place. I hope housing reads this so that they can actually start fixing students’ basic needs of living.”</p>

<p>How seriously should I take these quotes? Are these exaggerations or true reflections of the conditions at SMQ and NMQ?</p>
