Personal recommendation
Southerners are really disguished and warm; prejudism is present thus, but it is rare. Students who love history, traditions and heritage will enjoy living in Baton Rouge, but they will enjoy a lot more if they're especially in contact with local activities at BR and New Orleans.

Travelling to the deep South, to the bayou, allowed us to get in contact with sensational nature and great preservation efforts to keep the fragile enviroment of the swamps and the bayou.

Personal comments
Dorms are not ideal when you are already used to live by your own, and share a room with someone you don't know may turn to a nightmare. Apart from that, there is no way to feel at home, it is always noisy and not very clean sometimes. The good point is that you are never alone, and you will find plenty of opportunities to meet new people. Up to you, if you are about to start the university, it may be a good choice to live in a dorm for 1 year or 2.

JUST DO IT!!! It is certainly one of the greatest experience ever! If you have a girlfriend, it may be a difficult choice, but you are young and have to take opportunities sometimes...that may change your life, or at least make it magic during 1 or 2 semesters!!!
