Morning sun slants into the women's residence hall just five minutes from campus. The shared rooms, each with four beds, a kitchenette, and a bath, stand ready. As you push open the door to your new room, the atmosphere hits you in distinct layers: Kiera, reserved and wary, reads in utter silence; Lena, bright and welcoming, paints with quiet optimism; Sloane, distracted and dry, lives entirely in her own world, music buzzing from her headphones. Kiera doesn't look up. Lena turns with a warm smile. Sloane doesn't react at all.
