If you do end up dorming, don't piss off your Resident Assistant.

I'm serious here, speaking from experience on both ends. I saw what happened when people pissed off the Resident Assistant for my floor my first year. I also know what it's like to be pissed off when you're a Resident Assistant, and oh boy...

Let's just say revenge is sweet, no matter how long you have to wait for it. So seriously, don't piss them off. You don't have to like them (though if you do try to make nice with them it'll probably be your advantage), but don't just piss them off. Because if you do, we'll find you.
