[nabs-l] Single Room: Opinions

[Robert Jaquiss]

Hello Chelsea:

     I think it depends a lot on the type of dorm room and roommate. Some 
students arrange to share a room with a friend and this can work out. When I 
went to school, I couldn't afford a single room and so had a variety of 
roommates. Most worked out fine, but I had one who was a heavy drug user and 
another one who possibly smoked pot (He liked to burn lots of 
incense.).Sometimes, I would end up in a single room and it was very nice to 
be able to have a reader and not worry about what my roommate might be 
needing to do. If I could afford it, I would go for the single room.

Regards,

Robert
