I lived in the dorms my first two years at U(S)L and enjoyed the entire experience. That was also back when there were a lot of students going to home football games. I do think there was a strong correlation then and think there would be now also!

I did live away from Lafayette during the time the dorms "died". Does anybody know why the dorms dissapeared? Too old? Not thought of as needed?
