[quote=Anonymous]It won't last forever, before you know it they will complain about the cold. It will also be too hot in the room because of the heat. Fans, open doors while in the room for air movement, pulled drapes to keep temperature in room down. Do they have mattress topper? Those retain a lot of body heat at night. Growing up in New England summers without A/c and high humidity were tough. But we often used frozen water bottles, ice packs or frozen towels/shirts to help sleep at night. On really hot days finding a "chilling" station on campus can help as well. For me the worst was actually in the winter when they cranked the heat and it was so cold outside - you were constantly taking on/off layers going into buildings. The rooms had to have humidifiers to keep down the dry hot air. [/quote]
