How was the rm switch made?

I ask because we went through an interesting situation a few years ago.
S and his first year roommate got along fine (they went to same college, and have remained friends). Down the hall were two boys who hated each other from day one. S and RM had the idea of switching as the bad relationship was affecting the whole house. They approached dorm head, and the switch was made. We didn’t even know until we showed up one weekend.

We were pleased that son and rm showed some initiative – and we discovered later that the two boys who hated each other became fast friends by their junior year.

Anyway, did the school find two roommates willing to switch, give S’s roommate a single or what. Did school give a reason for not acting sooner?
