Who goes to college with awesome dorms?

[NakaNaka]

I'm talking very fast internet, cable TV, rooms aren't so bad. What colleges have this??

 

[UberDave]

Western Michigan University's are like that except that the rooms are REALLY small.

Tarleton State University, TX: DirectTV feed through the coaxial cable network, 1.8Mbps T1, 2 Ethernet jacks per room, full private bathroom, co-ed! $1300/sem

According to my sister, University of Delaware has fast internet (decent speed at peak; great at off-peak), but 1 gig cap a day. I'm pretty sure they have Cable, but the rooms are really small....

 

[Pepsei]

University of Richpeople... eh I mean Richmond....

They have rows small houses with everything.. with the capcity of 2....

 

[Bassyhead]

RIT (i'm in tower A):

5mbit+ internet (for now, till everyone finishes moving in and sucks it all up), 57 channel 'basic' cable (time warner) lineup, phone, many different floor and dorm combinations. My floor is 3 rooms to a bathroom in these little clusters. Rooms are a lil bit smaller than others i've seen but all (i think) have been renovated in the past 2 years and have a good amount of furniture and storage.

Edit: 3 rooms to a bathroom, not ppl

Yeah the dorms i stayed at in Texas A&M had all those amenities and they were pretty cheap (1200 a semester) but the rooms werent exactly huge, but then again I got the 2nd cheapest dorms on campus.

WHOOP! No way! Which dorm?

I was in the A&M dorms for 1 year (Aston in Fall 95, Appelt in Spring 96). Appelt had ethernet back then and it was great... you could even get them to let you around the firewall or open up certain ports.

yeah, my friend at school "awesome dorms" is pretty cool

 

I go to the University of Michigan...I'm in Mary Markley dorm (mostly freshmen). The hallways are dark and narrow, the rooms are small...but the furniture is relatively nice ('cept my flat panel monitor won't fit under the shelves on the desk) and the Internet access is QUITE FAST.. I'm itching to host my own site...too bad it's against the school's TOS.

 

[Dhruv]

yeah.. but why would you want to go to A&M??





hook 'em

Dorms suck, rent an off-campus house and live a little.

Uh...thanks. And your comment is related to the OP's question HOW?

 

[Supermercado]

Where I'm at now (at Clemson) is pretty nice. It's an on-campus apartment. Some of the benefits of living off-campus (quieter, car is closer, etc.) but with the benefits of still being on campus (close to class, people that I know, internet, etc.). While Clemson is notoriously bad for having bad dorms (they were in the top 20 of some list my mom read a few years ago for dorms that are the most like dungeons), this one is actually pretty nice, as was the suite-style room I stayed in last year. There are some places that are no good, though - I lived in one as a freshman - but the quality here isn't too terrible.

Uh...it's related because it's about dorms which also happens to be mentioned in the title.
