I got stuck with a Stetson West corner dorm (blah) across from the RA's room.

Oh my. Poor Boston. Nice decorations though...I'm surprised you didn't use the banner as a quilt.

All of the FIRSTers in Beantown def need to go to the city and chill one day. The city won't know what hit it. Until the regional, of course.

Ok, are you guys graduate students or something?

My daughter and I visited North Eastern in 2000, and the dorm rooms were like closets with THREE beds crammed in them. Their take was "we dont want the students spending all their time in their dorm rooms.... yadda yadda yadda..."

looks like that approach has not gone over well (BTW, my daughter went to RIT instead)

I'm inclined to agree. Preston is one of the mid-range buildings on campus (although with the destruction of the Towers, vast amounts of the low-range buildings are pulled from underneath us), and ours are the finest design that the mid-1990s has to offer. (Oh, how I wish we didn't have that blah wallpaper on our walls!)

Did y'all get any special housing options? (We've got some, like Preston, the "green dorm", and Honors housing.)

Yeah, we are in the honors housing. The building is brand new and just opened a week ago. It's really nice here. All FIRSTers in the area are invited to visit...

Man that room is huge!
I don't think any of the rooms on campus are that big, even the suite-style, they're just rooms connected.

Both my roomate and I have loft beds with our desks underneath so that really helps a lot. Our room is 14*12 including the closets, it's not too bad, and it's home!


by the way, I hope we don't beat you too bad on saturday...

Oh god, you're right, you're not HSers anymore...
I just mentioned you and Henry because I've driven/coached against and with both of you guys before, and you both left definate impressions of being outstanding drivers.

I got to UAT (UAT.edu) and they don't have a campus and thus no housing, but instead they rent apartments from apartment complexes that are up to certain specs, and then 4 students live in that.

Specs:

2 bedrooms
2 bathrooms
Living room
washing machine and dryer

Also:

Swimming pool
Tennis Court
Fitness/health (like treadmills and weights).

It is not a gated Apartment Complex but it is very much closed, it is nice and quiet and me and my room mates won't have a problem with random people walking into the rooms.

Well,

Here's the story on Northeastern dorm rooms.
(and yes... I'm still there Fifth and final year baby!!!)

-Some dorms are really small, ugly, old, and overpriced
-Some dorms are really big, new, nice, and way overpriced (4K-ish a semester)
-Living off-campus is cool but its nice not having to worry about utilities & grumpy land lords

The room in the picture is one of the newer dorms. They are designed to be as elaborate as possible so the school can charge top dollar equalling a price per month of over a thousand dollars, but that's the reality of Boston. This year I chose an economy single... having my OWN bedroom was more important this year than having a pretty wall or central air.
