<p>norcalryan - I think you "just become one of the ‘pack’ ". However, by junior year, nobody is really one of the pack anymore. I don’t think many students are still living in honors housing junior/senior years anyway. Plus, once you’re an upperclassmen, many/most of your classes are upper level courses in your major. I think it’s pretty freshman and maybe sophomore year that you benefit from being in a living/learning community, and therefore are part of a smaller group. Current students, any comments?</p>
