What are the residence halls like?

Each suite houses four students and features both single and double occupancy bedrooms as well as a shared bathroom and living room. This apartment-style housing is very appealing to transfer students. All rooms are equipped with Ethernet connections for personal computers. Other features include cable television access, telephone service, microwave oven/refrigerator unit, complimentary laundry facilities and adjacent parking. Each complex includes a common lounge with large screen television, vending machines and a kitchen.

How are students matched up with their roommates in the residence halls?
