On Friday of FSU '93 weekend (my frosh year), a group of FSU fans stopped me while I was walking from Nieuland to Fisher, and asked me to direct them to the athletes' dorm. (Recall that FSU football players live in their own dorm, Burt Reynolds Hall. Now we know how the Bandit spent that bootleggin' money.)

"We don't have athletes dorms here," I replied. "All the athletes live in the same dorms non-athletes live in."

From the look on their faces, you would've thought I just informed them that ND doesn't have electricity yet.

that living in the same dorm will help them bond together (a la 7th floor crew, perhaps?).

I think that having the athletes thrown in with the "regular" students (almost every student at ND is exceptional, really) is one of the best things about ND. We're all human beings, why should we be kept separated from our fellow man?

The same argument apparently does not hold true in the face of parietals.
