[quote=Anonymous]As others have said the best practice is to put them in the windows with one facing in and one facing out. Have a small fan that is close to the head of their bed - to move air while they sleep. No A/C in dorms, especially freshman dorms is a pretty common practice - not just in New England. It also shouldn't come as a surprise that they exist and once your student has a dorm assignment - it's pretty easy to determine what "amenities" your child will have. Usually the first few weeks of class are hot/humid - then the problem resurfaces again in the Spring - depending on locale of school. Its not fun, but the kids figure it out. [/quote]
