But CMU Housing has more than enough for undergrads with no social restrictions as the sorority houses had. Housing had a lottery:rising srs picked rooms the first night, jrs the 2nd, sophs the 3rd.

I liked being in a dorm but wouldn't have minded parts of Squirrel Hill. After all, a lot of our professors and students came from there. Oakland and Shadyside? Not so sure.
