I think that the year in which I had an all-girls' suite was the best. Tieki, ROFL. Oh, I'm picturing that one. They like to swap floors (or rooms or suites) so that the ones inhabited by the guys don't degrade faster than the ones inhabited by the girls. Seriously, though, we don't have the same equipment; why have the same facilities? Tammi,

My parents walked into the bathroom on one of the women's floor (while I waited outside -- I'm not exactly sure why) and all of the sudden I heard my mother's voice: "Why are there urinals in here?!?" Apparently it was because the men's and women's floors switched yearly. Still, it was pretty hilarious. Cornell is starting limited "gender-neutral" on-campus living in certain dorms next year. It is indubitably one of the dumbest moves yet on CU's part, and I am glad I'm moving off-campus to escape the madness!

Great post -- words couldn't really express my feelings on this, so I didn't post it. Glad you did though! I'm not a big fan of guys and gals being on the same floor, let alone the same room. I think Kevin is right too -- Lazy! I saw this the other day. Great post — words couldn’t really express my feelings on this, so I didn’t post it. Glad you did though!

"Hey, my roommate is Sally Wright - I get to stare at those legs every morning!" Sam, Thanks for chiming in with the guy opinion. :) Kevin,
