<p>I think they try to put a lot of the freshman together. I know that I see this, especially in the Honors Towers, as so many freshman coming in request Tower 3. However, I know that one of my S’s friends, who decided to stay in Towers for his junior year, is there with one jr. friend that he signed up with and a sophomore and a freshman. When S’s friend went to sign up for returning housing, he and only one of his former roommates went down together to sign up together and make sure they were in the same room. But, there were two slots left available in that room, so they ended up getting two kids they didn’t know who happened to be freshman and sophomore. I don’t think they go out of their way to put a freshman w/ two juniors. It’s probably more like, “well, we have a few slots left … and a frew more people who want Towers (later at applying then others), so they’ll get what they get.” S was in Towers his first two years, and he always had same grade in his room. Freshman year … all freshman in Towers 3. Sophomore year, 3 roommates went down together and picked up a 4th roommate from another Towers suite who wanted to switch into their suite (they had lost a roommate because he flunked out), and so the 4 of them were there together to sign up and pick their new suite. So … he never had mixed grades.</p>
