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…
This question continues to raise a compelling argument to this very day. The University of Notre Dame has a total of 30 dorms and they are broken down to 16 male-only and 14 female-only. According to an article posted on About.com:Alcoholism, a new study in the Journal of American College Health finds that 42% of students that occupy coed housing been have reported to take part in binge drinking on a weekly basis as opposed to 18% in single-sex housing. This article also reports that students in coed housing are more likely to have multiple sex partners during their residency.

First of all, dorm should change because students need a better place to live. Students need a place that they can enjoy living if they’re not enjoying where they are living they are going to be sad, depressed and despondent. For example, this term we had a problem about our fridge because we have a lot of student in our dorm, there is a lot of food too because of the low quality, our fridge was smell so disgusting, awful and obnoxious. Everybody try to find the center of the…
Before coming to college, I had made many naïve assumptions about Binghamton University. What if my roommate didn't like me? What if we have nothing in common? I thought long and hard about what my tiny dorm room would look like and had countless nightmares about sharing a communal bathroom. However, after arriving here, the experiences that I've made have altered my thoughts on college.…
Student life is full of struggle and adventure. We can observe student going through different situations of various crises like financial, stay and other educational facilities during study period. Students have two choices to continue their education. Ether they can choose their house or college dorm. According to statistics it is found that many American students prefer dorm life to life back home or apartment. Students move from homes to dorm to escape the stress of parents, siblings and their very own house and neighborhood. Majority of the students move to achieve success, some for enjoyment and others to experience new place to call home. There are some students who find the new life in college to be struggle, and stressful but for some it is an enjoyable event and a lifetime opportunity to stay in college dorm. I have experienced both the ways of life in college dorm and as a commuter. Two difference of college experience of commuter and students who live in dorms on campus are less parental pressure and being independent; two similarities are boring situations and matter of studies.…
From the housing in the Vaughn center, to the Boathouse, to the Palm Apartment. Not only can you pick the different types, but you can also decide if you want to get a single, double and triple. All the rooms, whether single, double or triple differ in size, depending on the building. Not only are there different rooms in the different halls, but even within the same hall, it can still be different.

I am writing because I am concerned about gender stereotypes hindering the learning of our middle…
Socially, same-sex schools are emotionally easier on students. Stereotypes based on gender are not a huge issue in these settings. Girls are more outspoken and competitive when boys are not around to tease them. They also feel more comfortable participating in sports and traditionally male dominated fields when boys are not watching.…

It can be difficult to share a dorm or apartment with a roommate who is of a different sex. It can be hard to share a bathroom because one wants privacy. Boys and girls have different private parts. They will not be comfortable changing their clothes or walking around naked the dorm or apartment if they live with a member of the opposite sex. They also will be not comfortable talking about personal problems with a member of the opposite sex. Boys and girls are not the same. Boys do not express their feelings to everyone. They would rather keep it to themselves. Girls like to tell everyone about their feelings because they think it makes them feel better and they want advice. Also, It can be tough for girls to have a heart to heart with boys. To live with the same sex is always a good thing. It is usually easier to share a bathroom with a same-sex roommate. Same-sex roommates can share their clothes and shoes if they have the same sizes. That would be awesome because they do not have to worry about shopping for more clothes and shoes. To have a same-sex roommate will avoid any awkward situations.…

Certainly the biggest problem would be the resulting lack of privacy for dorm students. Most college students like to relax in nightgowns, T-shirts or underwear in their rooms and halls when they are studying late at night, or in the mornings when they have just gotten out of bed. No matter how “liberated” we are, not many of us are going to feel comfortable doing that in the presence of members of the opposite sex. If twenty-four hour visitation is allowed, there will be both males and females in the dorms at all times of the day and night. No one will be able to venture outside her room, even for a minute or two, in nightgown or pajamas. How would you like to get dressed every time you want to go to the bathroom?…
Pupils tend to learn better and faster in a gender-balanced environment. This is especially true for males, if there were only a few male pupils in a class, then these male pupils would not be as bright as the others, or they would be unable to reach their full potentials.…
These days, schools play an important role in our society as children spend a lot of time there. So, this fact that how schools are managed has a direct effect on the quality of student's education. The case in point is whether co-educational system could give us more benefit than single sex schools.
