Learning to deal with new roommate situations getting ALOHG By Eric Rajala and Lauren Rutledge A roommate meant a variety of things to each Uni- versity student. Upon arriving at school, a new presence was immediately thrust upon each dorm resident. Off-campus life was not devoid of this plight either; plenty of houses and apartments included shared bedrooms. While cost efficient, a roommate posed the danger of becoming problematic. With classes and school- work bearing down, a good night of sleep was essential. I did all my studying at the library so I wouldn ' t keep my roommate up, recalled senior LSA student Kendra Byrne. I slept like a log, so her late nights never bothered me. Even the usage of wall space could develop into conflict or friendship. My roommate put up this big, raggedy Wu-Tang poster on move-in day. Naturally, we didn ' t really get along, junior political science student Noah Seneca lamented. Even a personal bedroom could not save many people from the tribulations that came with close prox- imity to others. Community bathrooms gave students many headaches and upturned noses, as issues ranging from urgency to varying hygienes caused added dis- tress. My housemate used to use my bar of soap in the shower, complained senior LSA student Jason Charo. It ' s not that gross when you don ' t have to think about it, but he always left a ton of hair stuck on the soap. Not all new roommates became friends, and some old friends were made enemies through the oft- hard task of sharing space. The roommate could never totally vanish, which was why it was helpful to make concerted efforts to be as mindful as possible of a cohabitant ' s needs. Mutual respect fostered some very positive relationships, while poor communication and intrusive mannerisms produced some animosity. 306 MR After hosting a party. LSA students and roommates Robert Bourke and Nathan Griffin take their cans back for a cash refund. Many roommates enjoyed one another ' s company, often doing chores or other errands together. K.
