[quote=Anonymous]What makes a dorm towel different from any other towel? Buy the towels you like. Or better, have your kid buy the towels they like.

Do they like towels with hooks? Do they like fast-drying (microfiber?) towels? (I find the texture of many microfiber towels offputting.)

Surprise item -- my kid bought a drying rack from Ikea for $12. (From experiences at summer camp and such he said a problem was always nowhere to hang wet things to dry.) I thought it would be an inconvenience and never get used (or get bent or broken). At the end of the year he proclaimed it the most useful thing ever and said he and his roommate used it constantly.

He also bought a shoe tray and rack because his roommate wanted all shoes taken off and left just inside the door.

Twin XL sheets from Target. New full comforter insert and duvet cover from Ikea. (His cover at home had cheerful woodland creatures, so something a little less childish was in order.) No mattress topper, wrapper, whatever.[/quote]
