Stranger for college room-mate or school clmate?

I highly suggest a stranger. It will help you meet new people. Plus a lot of my friends decided to room together and lets just say that they are no longer friends. Also if you really do not get along with you roommate at all they can move you. The school will not require you to live in an dangerous environment. Personally, I think it is just a college experience to met new random roommate. That is wear I met my best college friends. Also I think it is almost a right of page in college to have one crazy roommate.
