pros and cons of living in tut?

Where I met my best friends and .1 mile away from literally everything. Would love there again if I could

For the life experience
For the tradition

The hot late night PJ pillow fights are excellent.

Seriously, Tut is a tradition, it can be fun, but it's a hellish cesspool of yuck.

I'd pick a house with suites, and commit to the bus for getting around.

I regret not living in tut, it takes more effort to meet people in the suite style dorms

I'm glad I picked Tut. If you are particular about privacy, cleanliness, or things being new don't do it. If you're a laid back, go with the flow, up for adventure kind of girl it really is fun and so convenient. It will be great when the new Tut is finished, but I wouldn't change a thing. Also, people with bad allergies or asthma seem to struggle because of age and dampness. I haven't had any issues.

I would just advise to wisely pick a roommate that you really think you can get along with, and stock up on vitamins, cough medicine, Advil, and cough drops. The tut plague is real, and it seems like every other floor has it at one point of the month or another

It honestly gets kinda nasty (especially on the weekends), but living in tut was one of the best decisions I made freshman year. I was 100 yards from all of my friends at one time, and you truly can get more involved with your house if you want to rush. Living so close to the row allows you to meet more girls, be at the house more often, and just overall participate easier
