[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Optional random is common, but it's not great for the kids. Mandatory random is really much better.[/quote] Can you explain why optional random is not a good option for girls?[/quote] Not the person who wrote this, but I imagine it's because there is a lot of stress over finding a roommate on your own through social media, etc. If you don't find one, then you arrive on campus already feeling like a loser. So if you are randomly assigned a roommate, there's a stigma -- "she couldn't find someone online." I hate this and wish all schools did random (with questionnaires, sure) assignment of roommates. Who needs the pressure of matching up with someone on your own?[/quote]
