Trin Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Anyone else apply to the CSWR housing? The resident decisions are supposed to be out on April 30, but I'm wondering if they'll come out today -- and if there are notifications for those who didn't get space, too. Anyone heard about it?

Thanks4Downvoting Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 No, but I'm living in the Chronkite center it looks like - a hell hole, but an affordable one nonetheless. Shared bathrooms on a floor; it'll be like I'm living in the dorms once again. TheHymenAnnihilator 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope I clear the waitlist, even though I agree it's suboptimal. I want a bathtub. I'm also networking for a possible housing share. BTW, the Student Life/Housing folks at HDS told me in email that we'll be invited to a Facebook group for our cohort soon. :-) Edited May 8, 2011 by Trin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trin Posted May 16, 2011 Author Share Posted May 16, 2011 I don't know why you guys are bothering with on campus housing at all. plenty of room in slummerville. I appreciate your input -- I don't know how many times I've heard that, though. Yes, I understand that there is housing in Somerville, and in many other places that are just one or two T stops away. Each person's situation is different. I'm old enough and self-aware enough to be clear about the housing situation that will best support my academic work while I'm at HDS. I don't know how I can be any more clear than that without TMI. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaTO Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 I think the graduate housing is further from HDS than some of the Somerville housing. I hear it's nice though.

Trin Posted May 19, 2011 Author Share Posted May 19, 2011 I think the graduate housing is further from HDS than some of the Somerville housing. I hear it's nice though. I dunno if Cronkhite is *nice*, but it's okay, I think. the other grad housing I mostly can't afford. I agree that some of Somerville is closer, but it depends on the location. I am actually really mindful of *where* things are, and how far the walk is, or what transit options there are. I apologize if I seem cranky about it, but I was trying to be tactful and not say, "Dude, I am almost 45 years old, I have arthritis and the winter weather makes me ache like a mofo. I will have language classes 5 days a week and I am not a freaking morning person. Grr, grr!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
