[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't care if it's freaking Harvard or Yale. No AC is a deal breaker for this family. So miserable! Who wants to live like that for years?!? It's like camp but it never ends! [/quote] The drama! It's not "for years", it is for a week or two until it cools off in New England. Honestly, if they can't figure out how to put a fan in a window to blow cold air into the room at night, perhaps they aren't ready for college.[/quote] It seems the DCUM community is afraid of any type of hardship for their kids. Resilience and grit aren't highly sought after traits - and yet that is exactly what is going to be needed to get through college with or without a/c. Sure A/C would be nice but my son had a choice of dorms - one with/one without and decided he liked the one without. He said its been hot but so far there was really only 1 tough night and he's been fine since then. [/quote]
