I have lived in the East Side (McAfee and Freeman) for two years and have loved living there. I currently live in Tower and have noticed a huge discrepancy in terms of community and student concerns. On the East Side, we would have to worry about walking 15 minutes across campus to check our mail or to go to an event but Tower's concerns were more that we were living in such an enormous building where we wouldn't really be able to get to know all the residents in the hall.
This past year, most of Cabinet resided in Tower, making it much easier for us to run up and down the stairs to hand something to each other or to discuss a recent occurrence. I think it is important for Cabinet to be all-representative and wide-reaching so I do understand your concern in having members of Cabinet spread throughout campus so it encompasses all student voices. Because of my experience on the "West Side" for a year, I am contemplating returning back to the East Side but I will decide this once all the members of Cabinet are elected so we know where we all would like to live.
