Dorms

Living on campus is great, especially because the campus itself is so small. Every dorm is close to something good.

The best dorm is probably Anna Mann, or one of the language houses, because they're cottage-style and feel more like a house than a dorm.

ODB is great because it's 100 years old with a ton of history, but it can be drafty and spooky, especially at night.

The cross-canyon dorms are good because they're rich in community, but the rooms are a little small.

Naito/Sullivan are great because they're new, with lots of huge windows, but the rooms there are also a bit small.

FSM are considered the worst dorms, but are still good. They're mostly considered unfavorable because of room size and the state of the hallways, which are kind of "asylum-style."

Cheating

Cheating isn't tolerated at Reed. Students police each other and themselves. There is an open policty for tests where students can take tests at home or outside of the classroom. Because of this honesty is veyr important.

Fantastic Parking

Parking is available for all classes, and there's so much extra parking space, you will almost certainly find a space, and find a good one at that!
