my ex girlfriend stayed in there her freshman year so i can tell u what i saw when i got in there and what shes told me:
-yalls dorm director is mean as hell and she dont let yall have lobby visitation even tho its open at other dorms... she calls meetings at all hours of the night and doesnt talk about anything (some say she just has em to hear herself talk)
-the rooms in terms of size vary, but its enuff 2 live comfortably...
-it used to be a male dorm 2 years ago and it still retains some of the maintenance issues, plus the typical problems of a college dorm( bathroom issues, small insects, etc)
-its the only female freshman dorm on the male side of campus, so u got Harkness Hall(freshman dorm) on one side of yall and Wilder Hall(upperclassman) on the other side
-yall r right by the water, so if ur fortunate 2 have the window face out, u can see all the myriads of storms and such coming over the water lol...
-if you sleep in late, theres a loud siren right behind Harkness that goes off at 12 in the afternoon and it will wake you up.
-it has a nice lobby, pool table, vending machines, tv, its str8
- yall nickname is the Moton Misses or something like that
- thats pretty much all i know - hit me up if u got any more questions and i can refer u 2 someone who stayed there

lol. She used to be the director when I was a freshman in Kelsey. She's not mean...she's just......well, let's say she's "mother-like". Sometimes, she's a little too mother-like. She will not hesitate to call a meeting about ANY problem she sees....and can lecture for about an hour on it. If you've mastered the fine art of tuning out older people, you should be fine.
Besides, she's really cool once you know how she operates. She won't hesitate to do anything for you (if you need it). She also loves to cook a meal for the whole dorm at around the holidays.

ha ha I HATED that siren when I was there! But yes, being close to tha boys dorms definitely had it's advantages. And fortunately, Moton has only been a female dorm for a couple of years so it doesn't have a rep like some of the other dorms. But Moton is a good dorm, I think...even tho KELSEY was better!
So are the dorm rooms bigger than Twitchell and since it's on the other side of the campus does that mean I have to travel twice the distance of everyone else? Is there anything besides reputation that Moton lacks compared to the other female dorms?
actually, ALL the dorms are the pretty much the same distance from the classrooms for the most part, and Hampton's campus is not that big...u can get to your classes in 15 minutes or less (15 minutes being the farthest away, which is the gym). As far as what Moton lacks, I don't really know what they lack...

lol all of the female freshman dorms except kennedy and maybe kelsey got a bad rep, they even got names for em : Twitchell :Twitch-hoes...Davidsonavidson ****.... Virginia Cleveland(VC): V.D... Moton had a name but i forgot it.. lol
the things what ol dude was saying is true the director will call meetings at all time of night. last night we had a meeting at 10 about something stupid and we have another one tonight. the dorms are pretty big, but the bathrooms on the third floor stinks and you do need a carrying caddy. I have moton hall for the fall but i don't think im coming here. this town seems just like my hometown and i want to get away from that. so good luck to every Hamptonian!
