duobeef:

What I meant by that is that people tend to pack 5 sweaters, two dozen of their favorite novels, 20 pairs of underwear and socks, etc. I find that to be overkill for my own situation. I have two sweatshirts, 8 days worth of underwear/socks, and two favorite books that I know I don’t get tired of reading.

There’s no real reason for that other than reducing how much you have to lug around come Move In and Move Out Days.

the_nightboy: I usually agree with you, but I can’t do so regarding the elevator issues. My feeling is that I’ve got the right to push “four” if I want/need to, and I don’t need to justify why I don’t want to or can’t take the stairs. Of course, this is only valid if I’m on the right elevator. (For those of you who don’t know, the Waverly elevators in Silver only go to odd floors, and the Washington Place elevators only go to even and the ninth floors.)

eji2006: To me, your question indicates that you didn’t look up the NYU bookstore online. When you do that, you’ll find a link to the bookstore’s hours under the section for the main bookstore.
