<p>I’ve only lived in SMQ but SMQ and NMQ are mirror images of each other.</p>
<p>I haven’t seen a single mouse my year here and we’ve only had issues with hot water for about a 2 week span during which the water would change from extremely hot water to extremely cold water but that got fixed eventually.</p>
<p>I’ve also never had a problem with the vending machines or the water fountains not working and since they switched over from Cash stripe to Much Money for laundry, you pretty much don’t need a cash to card machine anymore.</p>
<p>Slightly fewer than half the students on my floor are sophomores and although most of them generally have their own friends, the freshmen definitely do get along with each other.</p>
<p>It does bother me though that SMQ is tier II housing when its not worth the extra cost.</p>
