[quote=Anonymous]I would actually always recommend that incoming freshman do NOT room with friends, especially best friends, from high school. First, just because you are friends doesn’t mean you are compatible as roommates. Friends can have very different preferences for all kinds of things that don’t affect a friendship but make them want to rip their (or their friend’s) hair out as roommates. Second, even if the rooming relationship does work out, it can mean they stick together with their built-in buddy and don’t branch out to meet new people or try new things. It can end up being restrictive or limiting. I’m sorry it made for a last-minute scramble, but I think your son may actually have kicked out. And I would encourage him to move on from the hurt but not from the friend. [/quote]
