Poteat

鈥淚t was so convenient to be close to everything! Living on campus allowed me to become much more independent and to form intimate relationships with my classmates. My family was within commuting distance, but I knew that I would not get the fullness of the experience that I had at Meredith if I lived at home.鈥�

鈥淚 enjoyed living within walking distance to all of my classes and the safe atmosphere it entails. Living on campus made my experience the best because it allowed me to be active in so many ways. I was always surrounded by friends and felt like I always knew what was going on around campus.鈥�

Colbie Normann Stephens, 鈥�20
鈥淚 loved the excitement of living on campus 鈥� there was always something to do, whether it be a hall social or a tradition such as Corn, and a smiling face to see. I would always run into somebody I knew, even when I was just walking down the hall to get tea, and I loved it! Through living on campus, I became a part of a loving and tight-knit community here at Meredith.鈥�

鈥淚 lived on campus all four years. It helped a lot as an athlete. We had late nights when we came home at 1 or 2 in the morning. Luckily for me, my 鈥渃ommute鈥� home was really short and quick. I think living on campus gave me the opportunity to get to know my class, as well as the younger classes, through face-to-face interaction. It allowed me to fall in love with the school more, especially walking back to the Oaks after Corn. That was always fun because we all ended up going back around the same time, and it was like extra bonding.鈥�
