LINNEA PASEIRO: Hey there.
My name is Linnea Paseiro.
And welcome to Princeton University.
[MUSIC]
LINNEA PASEIRO: This is Forbes College, the
dorm where I live.
I thought we'd take a little tour.
Come on in.
So this is my dorm room.
My roommate and I have decorated it really well.
We have pictures from home everywhere.
Here's my roommate, Pew
She's from Thailand, and we met last year, actually, at
the Forbes barbecue.
We both love to cook, and we started the
Forbes cooking club.
PUI: Linnea's the baker and I'm the cook, so we're the
best combination.
LINNEA PASEIRO: One of the biggest reasons why we chose
the room, actually, is the view.
Welcome to Forbes Sunday brunch.
Lots of people from all over campus come down
to Forbes for this.
There's a chocolate fountain, baked brie, and always omelets
ready to order.
Here we are in the lobby of Forbes.
It might look a little bit out of the ordinary for a college
dorm, but that's because this used to be a hotel.

ROHAN BHARGAVA: Hey, guys.
My name is Rohan Bhargava, and I'm a sophomore at Princeton
University.
Welcome to Rockefeller College.
Why don't we go inside and check out some of the dorms.
Like most of the dorms in Rockefeller
College, it's a quad.
This is where we hang out, where we study together, or
just relax and enjoy a movie.
We have two separate bedrooms, so each of the bedrooms
function as a double.
This is my roommate, Chris.
CHRIS: Hey, guys.
ROHAN BHARGAVA: We have bunk beds over here and our two
desks, so we can actually work out there or stay in here if
we want some more quiet.
The best thing about having a common room and having three
other roommates is that there's always someone to talk
to, so you're never really alone.
[MUSIC]
ROHAN BHARGAVA: This beautiful space is
Rockey-Mathey Library.
It's really convenient because it's located right in
Rockefeller College, so during the winters, you don't even
have to step out if you want to come and study.
This is Rocky's dining hall.
I think it's one of the most beautiful on campus.
It actually reminds a lot of people of
Hogwarts from Harry Potter.
[MUSIC]
JESSE YOUNG: Good afternoon, and welcome to my dorm in
Butler College.
My name is Jesse Young.
I'm a freshman here at Princeton University from
Elmsford, New York.
This is Adam.
This is my roommate Ariel.
ARIEL: Hi.
JESSE YOUNG: This dorm is full of triples, and it's substance
free and single sex.
All the guys here are really close.
We all hang out a lot, so it's been a really positive
experience for me personally.
We have our three desks.
This is where we all study, get work done, hang out.
And if you come this way, I can just take
you into the bedroom.
We have a closet over here, a nice room with a view.
So now that we've seen the dorm room.
The next part of the tour will be the library, where I
personally spend a great deal of my time.
This way.
Waddup, Rishi?
This is a library, so I need to try and be a little quiet.
There are computers along the wall, and it's open 24 hours,
which is what I love.
This is Studio 34.
It's actually the only place that I know of on campus
that's open until 3:30 in the morning.
[KNOCKING]
JESSE YOUNG: Are you there?
There we go.
DANIELA BARTALINI: Hi.
JESSE YOUNG: Hello.
DANIELA BARTALINI: Hi, my name is Daniela.
I am another freshman here in Butler College, and I did the
Bridge Year program in India last year.
JESSE YOUNG: Best friends, basically.
DANIELA BARTALINI: This is Jessica and Angela.
On each of the floors, we have a study, a lounge, and a
kitchen equipped with an oven and refrigerator.
And my room is a quad.
There's a double bedroom over here, our common room over
here, and in here is my bedroom.
[MUSIC]
LINNEA PASEIRO: So I guess that means
the end of our tour.
We just want to say how much we love living in Forbes and
going to Princeton as well.
So see you guys later.
Bye!
