Alright guys, it's about that times that us college students enter housing lotteries for next year. Post up what school you attend, what year, where you live now, where you plan/want to live!
i know we all know little about each others' schools, so just explain what your living situation will be like socially, geographically, etc..
I'm going to be a sophomore at Bentley University and got absolutely shafted on housing. Three of my friends and i ended up in an 8 man suite in Forest, a building that I have yet to ever go to. hopefully it'll all work out. good thing is it's decently close to my dining hall and some sick urban rails.

why would it be a fail? there is a college acceptance thread floating around every year.
do you go to site discussion at all? if not, head over there and read Bishop's latest post. if you don't have anything to contribute, get the fuck out.

ive read all of them, just saying its a little more interesting to see where people are going to school compared to where they will be living....

but it's still a way of interacting. every college is different, every dorm is different. each dorm is going to provide a student with a different social environment. i could care less the name of the buildings people live in, but it's interesting to hear everyone's experience or what their college experience might be like.
and when you come in here saying "i see a fail coming on" or some shit, you're not saying anything besides the fact that you're a doucher. so if you're "just saying" what you've said above, come and say it outright, don't be a bitch.

i'm glad you can tell i'm a doucher?
and in your post you said nothing of significance that would allow one to see something special about your dorm.

ok, i told you i know nothing of my dorm next year as i have never been in it. well let me tell you about my dorm. Forest Hall is located in middle campus at Bentley University. it's probably 150 yards from our dining hall, and seems to be senior housing on the majority, which could be beneficial for weekend shenanigans. as far as i know, they're 8-man suites, so my room might be pretty fucking big. who knows?
and i'm not calling you a doucher, i'm inferring that you're probably a doucher because instead of saying anything of substance you have to hate.

that had more substance to it. I hope to be living in VWK. It is 4 man apartments for sophomores with a dining hall in the basement. It is about 100 yards from the Rec Center and another dining hall. My classes will all be withing about a 5 minute walk. The majority of parties on the weekends are about a 3 minute walk away. i'm pretty stoked.
