Unfortunately Moulton only has doubles and triples, so your likely in a triple. The triple rooms in Moulton, I must say, are a little squished....Its mainly by the desks where its pretty tight...not alot of room to move your chair around.

To be honest im not exactly sure what the bathrooms were like, but Im pretty sure they were communal.

Where do you see you are room number 116A.....if the room assignments are up I want to see mine!!!

The letter beside your room number refers to which bed you get in the room. There are options A-F, depending of course on which residence you are in.

Having A can also mean that you're in a double, not necessarily a triple. I was in a double and I was bed A. If you had say, letter C in your room number THEN you would know you were in a triple.

Moultons bathrooms are communal but fairly spacious. I never showered there though because I never lived there. All bathrooms are cleaned daily between Mon-Fri unless you live in Les Prince and you have your own, then that's your responsibility.

I'm bed A but I'm in a single in Whidden. Having A can mean single, double or triple. You don't really know unless you've got a different letter.

When do we find out our room assignments?

I'm assuming it will be shown in the payment agreement like in previous years?

During May @ Mac's tour of Moulton, they told us they have only SINGLES and TRIPLES in Moulton, NO Doubles.

Yup.

But you also know what room you're going to be in because you're staff, as well as because IRC rooms don't change.

HCA and HPA rooms usually don't. Sometimes (but not too often) CA rooms will.

Hey,
Im a first year and I just found out today that I'm in Mary Keyes. I know that its mostly upper years and is more of a quiet residence, so for anyone who has been in it before, is it fun/have parties or will it be alot more reserved.
thanks :-)

Actually Bates tends to have more upper years (and international students) in my experience. As for parties and what not, that depends on the people in your residence not the building itself, the occupants change and the environment changes with them.
