NewJerseyMom - my D just finished her first year in Hughes honors dorm. She was to be in triple, but sadly the third roommate was killed in a car wreck in April of last year so they ended up with a double. There were a few triples on her floor. D got along fine with her assigned roomie, but they did not have a lot of common interests so they went their own ways for the most part. D’s roommate chose to do some language grouping next year, so D has an assigned roomie again for next year. She wanted to be in a triple in hopes to find someone who has interest in music as she does; this is the one thing that drove me nuts…she was on metro late at night alone coming back from concerts. The other thing was her roomie was an ‘early bird’ whereas D is a ‘night owl’ so my D was in the hallway studying many a night to allow her roomie to go to sleep at night…she had lots of company out there in the hall.
