Living in the Dorms

Freshman year I lived in the section Pollock and Beaver Hall was the name of my dorm.  What I really liked about living here was the location and it was a special living option.  The special living option was EASI (Engineering and Applied Science Interests) it was a great experience because I was living with mostly freshman engineering students.   The location of Pollock was perfect for freshman year because we were right in the middle of everything.  Main street (College Ave.) was 2 mins away, it was also close to East Halls where a majority of the freshman were located, the gym was right across the street, and  close to the Brice Jordan Center,  and of course BEAVE STADIUM!!! There were also more dinner options as compared to other locations, because living in Beaver Hall, South commons is right across the street which has the most food options on campus, and you are close to the Pollock commons which had Italian food and general.  With this many options you could never really get bored. 
Another positive is the number of engineers you get to meet, due to the fact that your floor is about 85% engineering major.  The floor is split half girls and half boys I thought at first would be a little strange.  But in the end we ended up have some really fun times together hanging out and studying for tests!
   Living in the dorms with someone you might not know can be a little out of your comfort zone.  However my advice would be, go in with an open mind and you might find out a lot about yourself.
