<p>My daughter lived in a learning community freshman year rather than Forbes (a mistake she soon learned). It seems as though the rooms are perhaps a bit bigger in Forbes and it may be a little quieter day to day. The whole dorm issue is so personal.</p>
<p>We did not do the honors day because of an emergency; however, I do not think people got to see the dorms. My daughter could not have cared less about the room set up, so seeing a dorm was not on her list. You can go to Pitt’s housing page and look at floor plans.</p>
<p>I would add that DD is in Forbes Craig (honors dorm for non freshmen) and she thinks it is noisy–both street noise and people walking down the street making noise late at night.</p>
