    Room Assignments for PS/AC Year?

    I know that during the AC year, each company rooms in the same area of Bancroft. In the summer, do all the kids from the same company live in the same area? Are your roommates in the same company as you? And once the AC year starts do you keep the same roommates? Thanks!

    Toiletries?

    I read in the Permit to Report package that we will have a chance to go to the mid store to get toothbrush, razors, etc. Should we bring these on I-Day? Or just wait and get them there?

I have heard that there are some benefits such as team tables, but part of me wants to play a more carefree intramural sport. I also feel like a varsity sport would be even...
