Consider living in a dorm room during your first year at college. While it's not as fashionable as having your own apartment, it's a great way to become more involved in campus life. You'll be close to other students, making you more likely to make new friends and avoid the loneliness of living alone.…

In conclusion, it has been shown that renters will pay less for their living arrangement. Renters also do not have some of the worries that a homeowner does. A renter is not responsible for upkeep and maintenance on the place in which they reside. Renters also several amenities included at no extra cost that homeowners would have to purchase separately. The savings of becoming a renter keep adding up and it almost seems a waste of money to become a homeowner. The final decision is always up to each individual, but the savings of renting is a strong persuading factor in the decision of whether to rent or…

At first glance, many students are immediately drawn to the social environment of a university. Various universities including NCCU, UNCG, NC A&T and WSSU all provide socially adequate environents where students are given access to differentiating programs, parties, clubs, dances and events. Another common connotation referenced when accessing a university is the utilization of dorm rooms. This can serve as either a pro or a con, depending on a student's personal preference. There are students who may not mind sharing their space with another student, but there are also students who prefer a bit more privacy and seclusion. Having a…
The worst experience in my collage life was living with a roommate that had bad habits such as being noisy, stingy and messy. College students should know the person that they will stay with and see if they have similarities with him or not before they decide to live together in the same…
College is a big family for everyone who just leaves home. For them, leaving their families are very good for them who want to start a new life and they can do everything without controlling. When you start a new life, you must adopt to it. Dormitory is a new beginning for many people, so you must know how to make friends with people who live with you.…

This is not fair because some people who just do not like their roommates are able to switch rooms and others that actually get into fights with their roommates are not always able to switch rooms. To fix this problem, I would use the conflict resolution system of mediation. I would use mediation because the roommates would be able to talk their problems out and see if they can come to an agreement without them having to switch rooms. This process I would call Roommate Mediation and this process would work by when one of the roommates is having a problem with the other one they would go to their RA on their floor. The RA would then ask both people if they are willing to attend a mediation session. If they both agree to mediation, then the RA would ask them when it would be an appropriate time for them to meet. The mediation would take place in the study rooms which there is one on each floor of the residence hall. I think this would be a good place for the mediation process to take place because the rooms are quiet, the roommates would feel safe, and there is plenty of…

The perception people have of dorms in general is definitely not what dorms are really like. Here at Valdosta State, dorm life would be more compared to life in jail. The living environment isn't the greatest in dorms. Living on campus in a dorm is supposed to be homey, like your home away from home, but that is not the case. Dorm rooms are very small, and it's hard living with someone else in such a small spaces. Along with being confined to a small place, there is no privacy. Many people have problems with roommates, and being in a 10 x 10 room with a person you hate is not a very ideal situation. Because of all of this I have come up with a proposal to change dorms as we know them to something completely different and a lot more enjoyable to the future college students here at VSU. I want to propose dorm renovations and how roommates are selected.…
In recent decades, a growing of juvenile is willing to choose foreign countries for their further education, and residences directly become their first choice after they reach the new land. However, most of them find too difficult to share a good atmosphere with their roommate indeed, which mainly happens in North American. In terms to me, I used to share an apartment with two Canadian guys for three months approximately, and this experience will be an unforgettable experience with sadness and suffering unluckily. There is no doubt that roommates who have good and superb qualities will be acceptable and welcomed, and these superior qualities definitely help international students to find their ways in a new country.…
Privacy is perhaps one of the most important things you receive when you are living on your own. Coming home from work or school to find there is nobody sitting watching a TV program you do not like or someone trying to force you to eat when you are not hungry. Also there will be nobody there to annoy you with their questions or their whole day in detail on a daily basis.…
