why do students get the crappiest housing for summer?

<p>saxon/reiber hall
crappy food
no ac
my room thermo reads 90 right now</p>

<p>The best housing (De Neve) is reserved for two groups of people: the wealthy international students and visiting businessmen/university officials. The former group gets De Neve so that they receive the best experience that UCLA can offer, so that they praise UCLA among their friends and family when they return to China/Japan/South Korea. The latter group gets De Neve because many of the weekend-long summer conferences already take place in the De Neve auditoriums and meeting rooms. The second-best housing (Rieber Vista/Hedrick Summit) is reserved for the incoming freshmen attending Orientation sessions. Makes sense?</p>

<p>Also, as a former Rieber Hall resident for Summer Sessions, I would recommend you open your windows and purchase a gyrating fan for your desk – the two fixtures working in tandem lowers the temperature by ~15 degrees Fahrenheit. :rolleyes:</p>

<p>Rieber Hall’s that bad? Just over the summer, right?</p>

<p>I hope it’s not that bad…</p>

<p>I’ll be in a Rieber Hall triple.</p>

<p>my roommate next year is taking a summer class and she’s living in de neve right now. i don’t know how but rOar to her haha.</p>

<p>flopsy,</p>

<p>Don’t forget the rich ■■■■■■■ kids that get Hedrick for Sexua…Summer Discovery! I mean, what would a UCLA summer be without them?</p>

<p>Rieber Hall is definitely not the crappiest. I lived in De Neve first year and Rieber second year and let’s just say that after my first year I was set on transferring, whereas after my year in Rieber, I love UCLA.</p>

<p>summer discovery. hah. bunch of rich foreign kids who spend $8000 to trash hedrick summit and exploit the resources of UCLA. i imagine actual students resent them.</p>

<p>great…i will have to live in summit this fall :/</p>

<p>namaste,</p>

<p>Foreign? Try New Yorkers.</p>

<p>Oh wait… you’re right.</p>

<p>significant amount of new yorkers too. the kids from turkey and france always stand out to me, since they come in clusters. i remember last year they actually tore down several of the doors in summit.</p>

<p>Well, the foreign ones are bad.</p>

<p>However, I know for a fact that the majority of Sexual Discovery kids are from the East Coast. Trust me…I was supervisor of Access for Hedrick a couple of years ago. I remember them ALL too well.</p>

<p>hehehehehehehe i bet. since they all hang outside hedrick, my friends and i used to go down there and interact with them. i’ve always felt bad for the hedrick and summit summer access control. who wants to deal with yelling spoiled kids with ice cream cones… or much worse.</p>

<p>Or the ones that saw fit to have sex in the stairwells?</p>

<p>Sigh.</p>

<p>whaaaa? :O</p>

<p>Gah.</p>

<p>SO.</p>

<p>MANY.</p>

<p>CHEERLEADERS.</p>

<p>GO AWAY. </p>

<p>/endrant.</p>

<p>yah there were a lot of them…
effin short purple skirts.
i second your rant lol… well of course i do, i’m colorguard and colorguard > cheerleading!!!
<em>end rant</em></p>

<p>Hahaha.</p>

<p>Seriously I could hear the screaming from INSIDE of Powell.</p>

<p>Not. Okay. </p>

<p>And really they just remind me waaaaay too much of girls from high school who I semi-associated with and who I now laugh at because oh god. Just. So lame. It’s funny how you can go from soooo wanting to be like something to hating it in a few years. </p>

<p>/I’m sure all cheerleaders aren’t lame? Just…all of the ones from my HS.</p>

<p>perhaps… but a few from mine would fall under that catgory as well :wink:
seriously, my number one pet peeve was when people would see me in my drill team uniform and think i was a cheerleader. i’d be like, cheerleaders don’t twirl flags you dumbass… <em>sigh</em> ah well.</p>

<p>Cheer camp FTL.</p>

<p>FTL!!!</p>
