At the University of Florida, for example, the school decided to give in to the social media phenomenon by using a Facebook application called RoomBug so that students could check out prospective roommates’ habits i.e. their neatness and sleep schedules.

Boy was that dumb.

Are college roommate assignments in this enlightened age sex indifferent/neutral, or do students wishing to have a roommate of their opposite sex get to make their own personal selections?

Other schools still hesitate to turn the process over to new media “for fear that racial, religious and sexual minorities might be singled out or excluded.”

What kind of “sexual minority” is there? You’re either an innie, or an outie, right?

Back in the mid-60’s, men were not allowed on the residence floors of a girl’s dorm (except to help moving in/out at the beginning/end of school term).

When you went to the girls dorm to pick up a date, you had to sign her out and back in, before curfew. They had large parlors with lots of sofas to sit and talk. Talk, period.
