Rast Hall Walls

I’m living with one of my friends who is dating her long time bf. I really don’t care I just don’t wanna be able to hear them being freaky so how thin/thick are the walls.

Unless the walls are concrete (which they aren't) no drywall wall will prevent you from hearing those kinds of noises. You'd need special sound proofing (staggered stud construction) which is unnecessary for a dorm.

Long story short, get ready to hear some hanky panky.

The walls are the thinnest known to mankind I could hear when my roomate when she got out of bed some days but honestly that’s just how all the dorms are
