Lander is a wonderful dorm for incoming freshmen to meet friends and other students in the same boat as them. Don’t worry, even with co-ed floors, there really isn’t anything negative in terms of privacy. Guys have their own bathroom; girls have their own as well. Girls also get an extra key as their bathroom is locked. There are always RAs on duty too. I’m thankful that there were guys and girls on the floor as it made for a more balanced environment. The community in Lander is very strong and people bond quickly because they’re all excited about being in college. The RAs are always upperclassmen who help get everyone acclimated and become your good friends. To give you a personal story, Lander was my fourth choice originally (behind McMahon, McCarty, and Haggett). Well, I ended up being placed in Lander, and to this day, I’m so glad that I did because I met some amazing friends and have some fond memories. I hope that helps.
