There is no way colleges are re-opening in-person this fall. Come on now.

Hopefully/sadly they’re not going out much anyway.



Adding running shorts and a pair of jean shorts/casual ones. Great list.

Is a tiny fan (desktop size) sufficient if the dorm has AC? ds doesn’t get hot easily. Only asking because we already have it from awhile ago

FWIW I was worried that my DD was bringing/shipping too much stuff (mostly clothes). I was pleased when I realized that the kids elevated their beds so that they could store multiple bed and bath clothes bins/drawers under it.

Clearly..no garbage pail, desk lamp, storage bins, fridge, fan, rug. Should be fine for clothes, bedding, some kind of hamper. Ship anything else.

They don’t need bedding?

My oldest used how topped and twin sheets 1 year and I plan to bring them. We already have comforters and bath towels ... why would I buy more?


I think PP means don’t bring a bunch of stupid crap. A bunch of wall canvases, way too many notebooks, winter clothes, a gazillion throw pillows, 16 pairs of shoes, etc.
