<p>OH HELL NAH! WARREN IS NOT FILLED WITH GEEKS!</p>
<p>Hahahaaa, I’m in Warren, and I have heard that stereotype. This is UCSD; there are "geeks"at all the colleges, not just Warren! To some extent, I do agree with that stereotype though. Warren is the unofficial college for engineers, so maybe that’s why it attracts so many… geeky… people. =p But hey! I LOVE Warren College! We’re at the waaay east part of campus, so it’s definitely an effort to go to other parts of campus (thank goodness for the shuttles). However, a lot of the discussions are at Warren Lecture Hall, so the walk isn’t that bad. The dorms and apartments feels like a completely different part of campus, because I mean, you have to cross Voigt Dr. to go to the housing complexes. Because of this, Warren feels like an even tighter, more friendly community compared to the other colleges. I live in the res halls, and I think they are one of the best. In fact, I think they are second best (behind ERC’s, of course). There are three res halls: Frankfurter, Stewart, and Harlan. Each hall has their own “stereotype,” and it varies every year, depending on the type of people in the hall. Harlan can’t seem to escape the “weed hall” stereotype because everyone smokes weed in the canyon below ahahaha. The halls have suites, about 4-5 on each floor. Each suite is comprised of usually four single rooms and two triple rooms. Double rooms are rare in Warren, but there are some suites that have them. Each suite shares a bathroom, which has two bathroom stalls, two showers, and three sinks. They also have a living room. Each floor has a study lounge, trash room, and laundry room. If you’re lucky, you might get a balcony with a view of the canyon (which is a plus, because you’re less likely to get caught doing “bad” stuff hahaha). If you’re ever bored, go outside onto Warren Lawn and play some ultimate frisbee! or football! or soccer! or volleyball on the sand courts! or basketball at the courts behind Stewart! There’s always something to do around the res halls, and if people see other people playing, they’ll most likely join if they’re down to play. Before you know it, a bunch of people will be playing with you.
A few lounges have pool tables and stuff. Also, SAC is a good place to go if you’re bored. They have a piano, ping pong table, foosball, pool table, and movies to rent. If you’re hungry, go to Earl’s or Canyon Vista (called CV). Earl’s is Warren’s market, and imo, it’s one of the best markets on campus. It closes at 1am, and around midnight, you’ll see everyone there getting some midnight snacks and whatnot. Earl’s is also like a cafe, so you can order really good drinks like stuff you would get an Starbucks! and the employees are really chill, too. CV is Warren’s dining hall, and hah, that place sucks. You WILL get tired of it and will end up going to the other college’s dining halls. I got tired of CV really fast, but then again, I think everyone hates their own college’s dining hall because apparently people from Muir and Marshall loooove CV, hahah. It’s weird. CV does have its good meals every now and then, though. If you wanna study, each floor has a study lounge. You can also study at the JK Wood Lounge by Earl’s or at the Courtroom, the 24 hour study lounge by SAC. If not, Geisel Library is just a short walk away. Warren’s student council is really good as well! They put on a lot of events for its residents. The RAs of your floor also put on events for their residents, so there’s always something to do every week. Another good organization for Warren is COWS! The spirit committee! Imo, Warren is HELLA spirit, all thanks to these guys! They’re the reason we won Spirit Night this year! WOOOO! Besides that, there are many other orgs to join for Warren.</p>
<p>I hope that gives you potential Warren people a better insight on the Warren campus! Hit me up if you guys have any questions. :)</p>
