This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Bates chapter.

Bates College, attempting to soften the blow of the housing lottery — proving unsuccessful as first years ignore the fluffy candy in favor of Keith Tannenbaum with a bullhorn.

Courtney likes long runs (not on the beach), long naps (can be on the beach), and long conversations with herself (and her roommate). She's a first year at Bates College and has decided on a different major each semester so far (this time it's psychology!). She is a member of the cross country and track teams, as well as a volunteer in the surrounding school district. Her #1 piece of advice: "You cannot do anything with a tired brain. Go to sleep!"
