When you move in leave your door open, wide open. I met my bestfriend in college because his roommate was lame, he lived next door and would just pop his head in to see if we minded if he chilled in their, after a while we told him to stop asking and just hang out. Best drinking, partying, and friend i made in college.

yeah i see what you mean, though im not dorming for at least the first year... i have heard it is "crucial" but is it really? i dunno.. i just don't see myself living with 3 other people i prolly have no connection with at first.. talk about a real reality show! in any even i rather get my own place near the college eventually.. :o

Well, I think having roomates freshman year is important, if only because you *don't* get along with your roomates. It gives you incentive to leave your room and meet people. If I were in a single my first year, it would have been the internet 24/7. Instead I had roomates and had to vacate to get away from them. Now I have friends and a single and it's internet 9/7. :D
