For the purposes of this market, I "live" in a residence if 1) that is where most of my stuff is and 2) I sleep there most of the time around the closing date.

This market may resolve to any of the following: a specific MIT dorm building, a specific FSILG near MIT, "off-campus near MIT" (corresponding to anything else near MIT), or "not living near MIT." All other options will resolve NO; you should only add options corresponding to one of these. For now, I have only included a subset of these options.

In case of ambiguity, I will resolve the market as I deem appropriate, potentially to percentages.

@SusanneinFrance I'm currently a prefrosh probably majoring in some combination of math and CS. Having a few other mathy people around sounds like it would be nice, as would being in one of the tighter communities... other than that I'm not really sure what I want right now (e.g. cook-for-yourself sounds cool while eating in a dining hall is closer to the playbook; I know more people in Next/New Vassar than New/BC, but the latter two give me different vibes that I don't necessarily dislike; etc.)

fwiw the timeline set here is so that if i dislike a dorm and switch, i would hope i'm no longer in the same dorm when it resolves

@proa200 I’m not so familiar with the New X dorms, but fwiw the BC suite configuration was always said to uniquely encourage tight communities.

Btw Math and CS folks everywhere 😃
