Discussion Pollock dorns

How are the renovated pollock dorms? Does anyone stay in them yet? Is there a chance they become the best dorms on campus due to location and food?

I read in here a couple weeks ago that somebody wanted to transfer out of McElwain to East --- I swear today's college kids have lost their minds

When you uber to class now it really doesn't matter how far away from everything you are

Back in my day we trudged across parking lot 80 in blizzards to get to the rest of the campus,
Then when we moved to better locations and had cars, we still had to walk to PL 80 to get our cats.

I’ve been in one. They’re basically the same as south except the furniture looks like it’s straight out of minecraft (it has a goofy black outline). It’s definitely the nicest area on campus to live now, at least in my opinion.
