Covel Dining Hall is technically in Sunset. If walking there from Sunset is difficult (unless you are handicapped), then you have a problem because it is flat terrain as opposed to flights ofstairs elsewhere.

Ok, buy push pins, buy XL sheets but not necessarily XL comforter, don't buy white board b/c it's provided...all good info. Anything else about the res hall rooms?

Do most roomates share a frig/microwave and will it fit in a triple?

How cold do the rooms get; what do you use on top of those XL sheets - just a blanket? a thin comforter? both? more?

Residential Hall:
Probably 32-37" at largest. Youl'l have to bring your TV stand and place it by the window.

Residential Plaza:
Up to 57" widescreen I would say. You can do this by moving your desk into the closet, move the bed parallel to the window, and the move in a TV stand to where your desk used to be. That provides a huge area. I've seen someone do this, but it's not really recommended since it's kind of dark and awkward to work from the closet.

Bookshelves? A lot schools provide bed, desk and bookshelves. Since UCLA does not (right?), do you just pile them on the desk? bring bookends?

There's a shelf on the desk. You're not gonna bring a library, right? Just pile 'em on the shelf or something. And most textbooks are sturdy enough to stand on their own without a bookend.
