College Dorms?

I've seen the ones at UCLA and they were much nicer on average. I'm sad to say that the food is pretty terrible. The bathrooms are communal, which I could work with, but I have no experience with them. Maybe someone can shed some light on this?

Haha! I went to UCLA! And lived in those dorms for two years. I actually still work within seeing distance of campus even if I haven't stepped there in at least two years or so, they've built a ton of new residential buildings since I've lived there, a far cry from what I lived in back as a naive 18 year old. Don't know if you were talking about the food at UCLA or Miami, but in my experience the food at UCLA was fucking delicious, to the point of serious weight gain, which I'm sure is the complete opposite of what you want.

Miami, from what I know of it, a friend of mine did audio engineering there, is pretty much a commuter school anyway, but socializing while commuting is hard. I should know, I'm from LA. So much time wasted sitting in cars and stressing about parking and whatnot instead of just interacting with people. But it seems you've had your mind made up already and are just wired differently from me, at least, so I wish the best of luck.
