Hello guys,

So I recently received my housing assignment and I’m indifferent at this point in terms of location. It’s a 15 min walk to Tommy Trojan, apartment with 4 others. I got to speak to 1 one of my roomies who seems pretty cool. The others I haven’t met yet. However, after browsing their profile description, I noticed one of the other roommates listed that they would prefer to room with people of his own ethnicity/race whatever you want to call it.

I’m slightly worried. I can reassign, but I’m scared I’ll get an even worse assignment. But if I stay, I don’t want to be forced to live with a racist or a xenophobe.

What should I do??
