Cooking and cleaning aside - personally I'd want some privacy and independence by junior year....at the latest. I guess I just can't picture that many girls doing that well together over that length of time but if IU's making it work - hats off to them.

Trust me, by my senior year, I was going insane. I wanted to live out just so I could cook my own meals. My house went from a 4 year to a 3 year live in policy (or until you're a senior, depending on if you rushed as a freshman or sophomore) and girls whined at first, but they're used to it now. As long as you give them advance notice...like saying that starting with the 2013-2014 school year, seniors will have to live out, I think it's fine.
In terms of the first, I guess an unflattering nickname was a poor choice of words. IU has a large Asian population, and when they move out of the dorms, they move to the on campus apartments...IU students in general thus avoid the on campus apartments like the plague. They're also extremely outdated.
