I would consider a versatile person an ideal freshman roommate. He would be flexible and athletic, and would enjoy running, mountain-biking, playing Frisbee, and playing volleyball. We would have different talents so that we could learn new talents from each other. This person would not drink alcohol or use drugs and would have a good sense of humor. Someone studying Physics, Psychology, Cognitive Studies, or Materials Science and Engineering would probably be best because I could learn about Psychology, and Cognitive Studies from him or discuss Physics and Materials Science with him. With a roommate like this, we would have many opportunities for personal development and would get along well.

Comments: My freshman year roommates, and my other roommates at Princeton, are awesome people, and while they didn't match my description perfectly, they are so much better than I could have picked. Be yourself.
