Just to answer a few of the questions here:

Temperature: My roommate and I are in Bassett (main quad), no A/C - I come from S. FL where we have the AC on 24/7 and Ive really found not having A/C to not be an inconvenience at all. 90% of the time you’re not going to need it (during the Fall, its usually 50-70 outside and we just leave our windows open and during the Winter, its cold so we don’t want A/C anyways). The only time I’ve even thought about the temperature was during the first 2 weeks and now (about 2 weeks of school left) when its getting to be Summer time again. But we have 3 fans in the room which pretty much take care of that.

Showers - there is a “rack” handle (for lack of a better term) next to each shower stall where u can put clothes and towels. There is no rack per se like I have back at home but the handles are sufficient and u can always put clothes on the ledge separating each of the stalls (there is space there to put stuff and keep them dry)

In general, the more roomies u have, the bigger ur room.

Also with bathroom privacy, its not bad at all. I’m usually kind of self conscious but after like the 1st week, it was just pretty routine. I mean, its no secret that everybody has to do the same things … its part of being human.
