ICU Fes Symposium "Differences between the new dorms and the old dorms on ICU campus"

I participated in a symposium about "the difference between new dorms and old dorms in ICU campus" during the ICU festival. There were one panelist from each dorms to discuss with each other on the difference between the old and the new, and I participated as a representative from the 2nd Men's Dormitory. The discussion was mainly about the problem of 2 years system or 4 years system. In the current system, the residents in the new dorms can only stay at the dorm for 2 years, but in the old dorms, residents can live there for four years (basically until they graduate). There are merits and demerits for each system. If you can stay at one dorm for four years, there will be interaction with many generations, either elder or younger, and the residents get to learn a lot from that kind hybrid dorm. In 2 years system, you will have more interaction with peers in your same grade, but you will have less time to build up relationships, traditions within the dorm, and etc. It is required to look at this issue from many perspectives in making a decision of what kind of system to apply to the new dorms that ICU is planning to build in the future. I thought it was a really important issued since I am getting a lot out of living in a dorm, and I personally think whether or not the dorm is 2 years system or 4 years system makes a whole lot of difference.
