I have been accepted to a local college that is close enough to commute to. The college has a bar, just wanted to add that in BOO YA. Ok anyways, my choices are:

a) Live on campus. Coed buildings, male one floor and female the other floor. Alternating. Something around 4 - 5k per year for housing and meal plan.

b) Live at home, and commute. My parents have agreed to buy me a car (which I will pay off later) if I do this.

So, is living on campus in college worth it? You know, the whole independent college experience or whatever...
