I'd be happy to help anywhere I can. I'm about 90 mins from Dartmouth, 50 mins from UNH and only about 15 mins from Manchester airport. PM me for anything in NH.
I would advise parents to get roommate's contact info when you drop your kids off. My S had a medical emergency that required hospitalization and RM was so glad I contacted to him to let him know what had happened and that S was in the ok and not missing.

that is really good advice. As an emergency, you might also get the R.A.'s contact info.

I have several of my kids friends phone numbers stored in my cell. When I couldn't locate my daughter as she had lost her cell, I had her give me a couple of her friends numbers "just in case." I have some comfort knowing that I have other ways to get in touch in case of an emergency.

I'm hoping if this keeps going long enough, there will actually be a parent from Iowa--the only downside of Grinnell (not Iowa, per se, but low population).
