I am a pp, but I think you're overthinking. My DS didn't want to do anything like that either. No storage boxes, hooks, etc and it was all fine. Honestly, he trashed or donated nearly 50% of the little he had because we weren't there at pick up. |

OP we moved in our freshman DS 2 weeks ago: - 3 drawer plastic container for under the bed - Risers to raise the bed - 3 hook for towels on end of bed - Plastic shoe rack for under the bed - 4 milk crates for the cupboard above the wardrobe - Full length mirror with hooks to hang inside of wardrobe door Packets of command hooks He also had some decorating items but nothing like the girls on his hall |

That doesn’t sound like what OP is looking for. Goodness. |

If he’s heterosexual he’s not going to care one bit about decor.
My brother was an athlete who roomed with 3 wrestlers abs there were leaves all over the living room because nobody ever closed the door and they blew in. Some may hang a team poster or rock band, but they certainly aren’t coordinating colors and matching duvets lmaof

You just reminded me of something funny. When I was in college, I took a marketing class. The focus of my research project was marketing pajamas to young men. I surveyed the residents of the all male dorm I worked at (my job was staffing the front desk, checking ID's, etc). Most of my respondents said they only wore pajamas when they were sick (if at all). They also did not purchase their own Pajamas (I think their moms tended to??) Looking back on it, that was an interesting (  ) topic for me to choose to survey guys about??!!

Yes, very very typical. My son's quad had two gaming consoles (Sony and Microsoft), two refrigerators, and a bar. Lots of blue comforters and posters. |

What could possibly go wrong (with their GPA)??? (I would not endorse this suggestion) |

Plants really brightened up my kid's room.
But she did not really realize until she was a senior. (Note: they can all die over the holiday break, unless you haul them back and forth) |

+2 When I was in college (late 80s), we had an enormous poster of Morrisey. |

Those same JMU dorm rooms are adorable when decorated. Just like all the similar dorm rooms in thousands of other colleges. Just do a google search. |
