  Overall Dorm Grade

  I figure someone class of 2025 or onward will be looking for a review of Konkow because the most recent one i could find as a freshie was from 2016 lol - here is mine. Unfortunately i have beef with this dorm, but it has so much potential. I was fortunate enough to land a single room but beware it is about the size of a solitary confinement cell so don't being a ton of stuff. My RA won't do shit about shit so it became a mad house real fast, and that's a big statement for me because I'm a regular partier. People smoke, vape & drink indoors which is kinda awesome, kinda not because that will be going on more nights than not, and they will be loud. My first month a got a double ear infection trying to drown out my neighbors with airpods. Get an air purifier for your room because between the smoke and the old vents its a total shitshow. The actual dorm is old which is the biggest problem by far. List of regularly breaking things in our house include: showers (3x), chairs (5x), sink (4x), fridge once but the school didn't do anything about it for over 6 weeks which left half of the building with no fridge and a few weeks ago our kitchen ceiling completely fell through, a similar buildup is happening in one of the showers as of now. The schools handymen are impossible to get a hold of so be ready to work overtime to even get your e-mail read. We also have a chore chart of household tasks students are responsible for (clean microwave, vacuum, trash, mop so on) all of which janitors will do for you in other dorms and none of the kids give a fuck so none of it gets done, it smells and is overall putrid in there. I'm disgusted and I'm not even a very tidy person. Expect random puddles, sticky floors, mountains of dishes and trash constantly overflowing. There is also a path for people to walk the stadium that wraps the ground level past all our windows, I have had multiple grown men try to watch me change or just be through the window so i bought a blocking cling on Amazon.
