DD’s dorm has new furniture this year. The desk has a drawer that is set up for a lock, although I dont’ think she uses it. DS goes to an urban school…lots of theft, usually kids leaving a cel phone or backpack unattended. You can’t leave anything unattended for even a minute there…and a lot of the theft is people who are not affiliated with the U.
DD has an external backup for her laptop and a thumb drive. I have told her repeatedly to use them, particularly when working on a big assignment. Of course, murphy’s law…who knows if she is?
