Yep, at least for my college (but I don't think it varies that much). They are rather large and very sturdy - if properly taped - carton boxes you can buy at the bookstore, and you can have 3 large and 2 small if I remember correctly. Those plastic ziploc travel bags that squeeze all the air out will be your savior if you have plenty of clothes! You are also allowed to leave an item of furniture, a mirror, a framed picture, and a shelf, something like that. Keep in mind though that summer session students will probably end up using (and abusing) all of them if left.

There's also private storage firms around, some student run, but I haven't had any experience with those.

You can still leave your room exactly as you want over the winter break, and it's pretty safe - but for both summer and winter, there is always "valuable storage" for stationary computers, tv:s and such.
