[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FFS, folks. Grow up.
During my entire freshman year, I lived in a single that was turned into a double. We had bunk beds. It was miserably cramped. The shower was disgusting. It was dark and your feet sunk into the rotting concrete when  you stepped inside. It was in the basement of a century old dorm at a very prestigious liberal arts college.

Why do your little snowflakes need their own room, their own bathroom, their nice comfy double bed, all the cozies and tidiness and oomphieness of home when they are in college?? This is real life. Mommy and Daddy are paying now, but not forever (unless you suck at parenting), so start getting used to some deprivations, kiddos.

My kid's dorm room is so small, she is supposed to have bunk beds, but she refuses, so she and her roommate are working out a floor plan so they can squeeze two twin beds in their. One of them is going to put her desk in the hall because she doesn't study at a desk.

Yeah, $80k for this!! Whine away, parents. This is college as it's always been and likely always will be. [/quote]

Well said.  Some people are truly out of touch.  People don't attend decent colleges to have a posh dorm.  [/quote]
For $80K, I would expect a decent dorm.[/quote]

Yeah, Georgetown has awful housing.[/quote]

As do most good schools, ironically. [/quote]
