yeah, i stayed in olin hall in a room by myself...it's just a typical dorm room. really convenient cuz the pizza party is there the night before, breakfast is there in the morning, and it's really close to the med school.
the olin buddies program is just their way of making sure you have a first year student whom you can ask questions of throughout the admissions process...you meet your buddy/buddies at the pizza party. it's not so much a real program as just pairing you up with people.
