Ok guys, seems like none of the actual Moulton alumni are around to answer some of these questions, so I'll take a crack at it (I *did* spend a lot of time there when I was at Mac and it was still an all-female residence...and there's just no way of typing that without it sounding a little dirty :p)

First off, the "C" bed is the loft bed - the one with the desk underneath it. "A" and "B" are the upper and lower bunks (not sure which is which, but this is negotiable with your CA and roommate when you move in - your desk location isn't as much, because the letter is tied to your phone extension). Unfortunately I don't have any pictures, but I can tell you that you're kind of lucky - the bunk & lofts in Moulton are bigger than those in Hedden, for example.

Also, just to address the "I don't know why I got it, I didn't even list it as a choice!" posts.....that's the way fate happens in a lottery. Chances are, you were assigned a very low spot in the lottery, and by the time they got to your name, the more "desirable" buildings had filled up already, so they placed you wherever there was room.

Now, don't despair! Like many of us rez alumni have have said on here numerous times, it's not the building itself that matters, it's the people in it! For that same reason, you can't really say it's not a "party rez", because a building is just an inanimate object - it's the people who live there and their collective personalities that make it great or not. As for the physical building itself, I always kind of liked it - it's pretty good. It seems like a lot fewer people complain about Whidden which has almost identical rooms and is the same age, oddly enough. One nice thing about Moulton which I've often heard is that you'll have a ton of storage space in your room, which is always good.

Oh, and if you have a room like MOULTB107A, that "B" means "basement". Because the building is built on sloped ground, the rooms that are physically on the ground level in the back of the building are in the basement (as in, one level down from the main entrance). You still have full windows and everything, it's just a smaller floor because not all of it is bedrooms (the laundry room, multi-purpose room, etc. is also there).

Um... that's pretty much all I can address right now off the top of my head... One question for you guys, though - do you actually know that 3rd and 4th are all-female floors, or is that something people just told you happened in the past? In terms of gendered floors/buildings, things can change drastically from year to year at Mac, so I'm just curious if this was actually confirmed somehow.

Hello everyone....to all those people who didn't choose Moulton as their first choice..or even as any of there choices at all i just want to say............In my first year I didn't want to live in Moulton either, and I hated the thought of living in a triple with 2 other roommates, but guess what? I ended up loving it. I really enjoyed living in Moulton. Also, living in a triple will probably be torture to you at first, but as long as you get along with your roommates then you're going to really like living in a triple. Espescially if you're coming to Mac and don't know anyone - living in a triple is like having two automatic friends!! I've lived in residence a few years and I was a CA last year so I know it's best to try and get a long with your roommates, because there's like a 0.01% chance of getting a different room just because you don't get along with your roommates. So try to make the best of it!

Now, to all those lucky people who have the 'C' bedspace....In my opinion it's the best one! It's the loft bed and yes I am a little biased because that's what I had in first year...but still. It's like having your own personal area. You do have a little less storage space than the other two bedspaces - but because they have so much storage, they'll usually share all there space with you. They only thing you might not have a lot of is closet space. :S But there is a lot of drawer and cupboard space - so it balances out a little.

precious, spiotrowski all say thanks to bauhaual for this post.
