[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At Columbia about 60% of freshmen (it may even be higher), including DC, get singles. Shoeboxes, but still singles.[/quote]

That would be a negative for me.[/quote]

a negative for me too.  great for upper classmen, grad students, but not freshmen building new relationships.  [/quote]

First PP who mentioned the negative here. Immediate PP said it perfectly. Freshman year is often the first time when new adults learn to live with other people. They should not have singles. Shoeboxes are fine. It is Manhattan after all.[/quote]

Meh. I spent my four years in college sitting up late nights in the hallway with everybody else on the floor, making friends that way. And avoiding my preppie, judgy nightmare of a roommate and the swarms of friends who also ended up in Mass colleges and would visit constantly.  SIL's freshman roommate put labels on everything in the room. Why does it have to be a right of passage that you have to spend freshman year rooming with a nutcase? [/quote]
