Your Old Hag colors are starting to show, Scorcho.

I have to admit my years with 4 in a room were some of my favorites looking back.

In a B or A room, you can place the beds in an L and have plenty of room to still function. When I lived in an A room, we had this set up, with my desk at the foot of the bed that extended from the wall towards the bathroom. We had room for my office sized chair instead of the wood ones (which i add for the sake that my office chair didnt fit under the desk like the standard wooden ones did, thus taking up more room) and we still had plenty of space to easily walk into the bathroom.

The year earlier when I lived in a C room, my roommate and I had tried this set up. It would have worked great if the rooms were the same size. However, there was no room for my desk, let alone my chair, and even without those two you had to either squeeze through a six inch space between the bed and wall next to the bathroom, or climb over my bed to get into the bathroom

So, unless the beds are longer in the C room (which as someone who is tall enough that beds are not long enough for him, I can guarantee you that the beds in all the rooms are the only thing the same size) the rooms are different sizes.

Haha ya I stayed in a C room on East last year and we measured it out as well with the other guys in my quad and it is definitely smaller. But thru a ton of maneuvering we got a small couch and coffee table to watch movies in there haha

The only way I can make this story legible is to use fake names.

My brother is a Freshman this year, staying at M25. Apparently his freshman roommate(Andy) has a friend(Bradley) who is staying at the inn. Bradley's mom has contacted my brother, offering him $200 cash to switch over to the Lynchburg Inn.

Im of the opinion the Inn is not worth $200. What do you think?

Talk about a helicopter mom. Tell Brad it's time to be an adult and do stuff for himself. He should feel embarrassed.



It would take $500 or more.

if he was moving off east, no its not worth 200. The inn is however much better than main campus. Plus, how awesome will it be when she pays him and her son still doesnt get in the exact room he wants.

wait no, nevermind, M25 is one of the newer ones on the circle, so its not as bad and so yeah, probably not worth it to move off if he doesnt have a car

Lynchburg, VA - Liberty University (web) is concerned they'll have to turn away students from on-campus housing this fall. Liberty officials say record numbers of students are asking to live on campus.

Typically upper-classmen move off campus, but more than 500 asked to come back to live than the previous year. The university says no one has been turned away yet, but it is tight.
