Your Room
Most of the rooms New Students will be in are doubles-- one room with two beds-- in the Brown Tower, with communal bathrooms for men and women on each floor. Each double will be furnished with:
2 bed frames and mattresses
2 desks
2 desk drawers
2 chairs
2, 3-drawer dressers
2 closets
2 trash cans (bags provided)
1 recycling bin (bags provided)
1 vanity
In the O-Week book, on pages 49-50, you will find a suggested list of items to bring to furnish your room, but make sure to communicate with your roommate first so you don’t accidentally bring 2 fridges, 2 TVs, etc.!
