I settled in pretty quickly, and I have to thank my dorm for that. Goodwin has a very vivid and dynamic culture and it feels less like a dorm and more like a home. We鈥檙e quite close; we have regular dorm activities and events which help bring people together. It feels most like a home between 9:45 and 10 p.m. (check in), when students end up hanging out and chatting. It鈥檚 a great time to decompress and talk about our day because the dorm staff are so receptive and caring.
