Yeah, um, you'll get used to showering with 20 other naked girls. It wasn't new to me, since my high school volleyball team and I just stripped wherever and whenever, but some girls were clearly uncomfortable. Don't even worry about it. It's just naked bodies. You're too busy trying to shower in two minutes or less that you won't even care.

So I have a question on baby wipes. Kind of strange.
Am I better off with one very large tub or several small packages? The concern is that the wipes in the large tub would dry out.

thx! (that's right potter, you get to laugh at my questions... )

I was thinking-and this may sound strange, too- but should we initial our underwear since it's likely to look just like everyone elses (and I've heard they tend to mix up the laundry)? Also, do they issue things like q-tips and kleenex?

You'll mark all your clothing with a "laundry mark" that consists of the first letter of your last name and the last four of your SSN. Q-tips weren't issued (at least not to the guys), and I don't think kleenex were either, but they can be purchased during your first trip to the C-Store.

So should we mark our stuff before we come? Or will we do it there

Just plan on doing that here. They will give you time to put a laundry mark on basically all of your stuff. Since everyone is issued the same stuff and it all looks alike, they want to make sure everyone's stuff is clearly identifiable.
