Hey, guys! I’m from the wonderful residence hall of Schwalm, but I love blogging, so I’m just going to tell you about Oakwood. Don’t worry! I brought my friend and resident of Oakwood, Ashley Martin, to help me out in finding the highlights of the hall. So, sit back and relax!
- Comfy Places- I can’t tell you enough about how comfortable the chairs are in Oakwood. There’s a nice fire place that you can turn off and on for those cold nights or if you’re trying to impress a date. Oakwood is known for being a quiet dorm which is good if you’re a person who likes to study or nap.
- Entertainment- There are many sources of entertainment inside the building. Oakwood has a foosball table, pool table, TV, and a charging station for people like me who are too lazy to go their room to get their charger when they’re studying.
- Fun Bulletin Boards and Artwork- As a senior, I’ve developed good habits on time management and managing stress levels. However, when I was a first year it didn’t come to me. The motivational bulletin boards on each floor offer tips and change periodically. They are a nice refreshing daily reminder that you’re never truly alone.
Ashley Martin, a senior resident, says, “I love how quiet Oakwood is and how respectful everyone is to each other.”
If you like all of these amenities, but a seek a more social dorm check out my blog on Helman!
