Brody Neighborhood Dorms | Pros and Cons
The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.
So I'm gonna have a video on every neighborhood at Michigan State University. I guess I lived in Hubbard Hall freshman year, first semester, and then I moved to Armstrong Hall, second semester, freshman year, and I love Bernie Neighborhood so much that I decided to dorm again for sophomore year, and I lived in Bailey Hall for all of sophomore year. So I'm biased towards Brody because I have lived there the longest. How Brody Neighborhood is set up is the dorms are all surrounding Brody Square and in Brody Square. You're not going to be living directly next to someone of the opposite gender. Okay, I'm gonna start with the pros of Brody Neighborhood. Brody Cafeteria is the best and the biggest at Michigan State. Another pro is that Brody never had has the biggest rooms out of all the dorm buildings. I liked how it was pretty big, like You're not just like living like this close next to each other. The next Pro is that they're two living learning communities in Brody neighborhood, and you're probably wondering, what's a living learning community? Alina? Well, I'll explain, because I had no idea freshman near either, and I really wish I did, because I totally would have joined a living learning community. So this is how MSU describes a living learning community I literally like and reading right off of the MSU website, so I'd get everything right. Michigan State University is living learning academics and special interest programs allow students who share similar academic interests or interests and multicultural living experiences toe live together in a designated residence hall or on a particular residence hall floor. Many of the living learning options allow students to attend class with the same group of peers in their residence hall, which enhances friendships and networking and facilitates ease of gatherings and study time. That there's two living learning community is that you can pick from in Brody. Rise is a learning living community devoted to understanding the complex interdependence of the human and natural world. The reason why I say that I wish I joined the living learning community is because up rise. I live in Hubbard my first semester of freshman year, and I would visit my friend Djamila in her dorm at Bailey Hall ships. We lived on the second floor, where the rise community waas and everyone was just so close way closer than my floor Waas in Hubbard Hall. Like, realized and learned that they're all a part of this living learning community called Rise. Then the second living learning community is on the second floor of Ray. It's called the Drew Scholars Living Learning Community, so I'm going to read off of the Embassy website on what this community is. I'll leave some links below on more information on these living learning communities. Like I said, I never did a living learning community, and I wish I did. So take it from your big sister, Lena, that living, learning communities air like the best thing to do. Brody Neighborhood on Lee has community style bathrooms. If you don't want community style bathrooms, then burning neighborhood is not the one for you. Then when I moved to Brody, I realized community style bathrooms are the way to go because you're never going to have to wait on someone to finish showering so that you can shower because there's a bunch of different showers and sinks and toilets for you to use. You're never, ever going to be waiting, which is so convenient because I remember, like, really like needing to shower because I have class in, like, half an hour and having to wait and that being, like, so stressful, another reason why community style bathrooms are the best. If that you lived in a dorm where you shared a bathroom with three other roommates, you would have to divide up time to clean the bathroom. Since it's community style, they're people that are hired by Michigan State University to clean the bathrooms every single day. Another thing that's really dimension is that besides having the community style bathrooms on every floor, there's also a single person bathroom on each floor. So there is that option, if you like, absolutely hate like you, the style bathrooms, but you still on a living body neighborhood. If you really want to use that bathroom, the last thing is the one and on Lee Khan that I have on the list ready neighborhood, this kind of far from classes. Brody is just kind of like one of those buildings where you're not really going to get a class near it. There are exceptions where sometimes there are like freshmen seminars in the Brody Square building. Actually never had a class in Brody Square when I lived in Brighton neighborhood. That's why I'm telling you so you can learn from my mistakes. That's it for all my pros and cons for Brody neighborhood. If you guys have any questions about any of the other MSU neighborhoods, leave them below because I'm going to be doing videos on each MSU neighborhood and there are five. I will also include a link below to my dorm tour that I did last year when I lived in Bailey Hall.
