Dorm Life: UNH Style

Which one best suits you?

Dorm Life: UNH Style

It is inevitable that everyone is going to endure the dorm life experience at some point during their college career. For some, living in a dorm may be one of the best parts of your 4 years at university or college. Here at UNH, there is a plethora of dorms to choose from -- each dorm, having their own sense of community and feels.

1. The Sercs

Also, known by their individual names -- Peterson Hall, Haaland Hall, Handler Hall. They have suite style rooms that are clean and updated. These dorms are on the back side of campus and have a wonderful community feel. It is commonly sophomores or juniors who choose to reside in these halls.

2. Congreve Hall

This hall is all about location. Located right in the center of campus, this dorm could not offer anything more. It is right across from T-Hall lawn and has a plethora of windows and a beautiful courtyard. This dorm is highly ranked and the hot spot on campus.

3. Adams Tower West

This dorm originally opened in 2010, where it used to be known as The New England Center Hotel. This dorm is hidden behind Stratford Ave. and right next to the Whittemore Center. These rooms are large triples with a bathroom and wonderful views.

4. Hetzel Hall

This dorm is right off of Main Street, being conveniently next to all the good food places such as The Works and The Durham Market Place. For those who love to be in more of a smaller community, this dorm is for you due to its small numbers of less than 165 residents. This beautiful brick building has spring flowers planted right outside and will make this place feel nothing short of home.

5. Hubbard Hall

This is a coed residence hall for honors students and those who have high expectations in terms of academics. To those who want a quiet and academic based dorm, this one is for you!

6. Stoke Hall

Get ready to have some fun because Stoke is where it's at. This is a freshman/ sophomore based dorm that will give you the opportunity to meet an awesome, outgoing and upbeat group of people. Stoke is also known for being called "The Palace."

7. Christensen/Williamson

These two dorms, located behind Philbrook Dining Hall, are for first year only students. There is nothing more exciting and comforting than knowing you are in the same boat as everyone else -- entering a new school and a new chapter in life. I would highly recommend these dorms to any incoming freshman.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
