Most of the universities have started back up again in this area! This year, it’s my oldest child’s freshman year, plus it’s been a challenge trying to get everything she needs to guess settled plus comfortable in her new dorm room.
The university SMSed her a list of things that they request she bring, so we’ve been shopping non stop! I remember my days as a university student living in the dormitories plus how uncomfortable it can be.
The freshman almost constantly get stuck in the oldest buildings without AC or heat, plus it can guess freezing plus concrete! My daughter’s list didn’t have a fan on it, but I knew better… I insisted that she purchase a tall floor fan plus a small portable 1 that she could clip to the back of her bed, then our family is used to sleeping in cool hot plus cold temperatures, so I didn’t want her to be too overheated plus unrested. I also insisted that she purchase a bunch of extra blankets plus a thick comforter for her bed, then cement walls plus old windows can lead to a drafty plus freezing room. I wasn’t sure what the regulations were on space heaters, so the extra blankets would have to do, when the two of us dropped her off but, I was shocked at how nice her dorm room was for a freshman! Not only was it brand new, but there was central heating plus air! She had her own control unit! Her freshman dorm room is nicer than her room back home! I can’t know how far these dorm rooms have come these days.
