<p>Yeah. Wharton is the nicest of the co-ed dorms. Very pretty building. Great location. Terrific courtyard that makes it pretty social. It’s usually the first dorm to fill up in the upperclass lotteries. Not as many freshmen, so probably not quite as good as Mertz or Willets for meeting a lot of people.</p>
<p>Mertz is a good compromise. A little institutional because it is a newer dorm, but very social with huge common room and lots of lounges.</p>
<p>Willets is mostly doubles, so it has a high concentration of freshmen and sophmores. Tends to be the “party” dorm, although I gather that’s been toned down quite a bit in recent years with a couple of floors of quieter freshmen.</p>
<p>Dana and Hollowell are OK. They tend to not be the most popular because students aren’t wild about the maize-like halls. </p>
<p>Too early for Alice Paul to really have an identity. </p>
<p>Mary Lyon is a really nice old dorm, but it’s a 10 or 15 minute hike from the center of campus.</p>
<p>Fact of the matter is that you’ll end up living in four different dorms over the years and all of them have their pluses and minuses.</p>
