Tech is a dry county. Enjoy your trips to the Strip or Wayne's for your beer.

yea but its only a 10-15min drive to the strip. Wayne's is the ****. The dorms are all about the same, since u dont really have a shot at the apartment style ones. what are you planning to major in?

TSP is out there, and there are a few of us out here. Whatever you do try not to get in to Weymouth, that is the worst dorm i encountered.

They are probably all filled by now, they are considerably nicer and newer then the rest of the dorms so people jump on the opportunity pretty quick.

i am a freshmen this year and i am in gates and i like it because its low key and no one really bothers us. like the one guy said weymouth sux they are always under the magnifying glass. oh and aint to hard to come by. the only complaint is its a little more expensive but you can allways find someone to get it for you. i see alot of F bodies running around along with a bunch of mustangs and ricers. i guess like any college town. oh and if you plan on getting your car in the parking garage get in line at parking services really early.
