^^ Agreed as to all. My son has formal dress Monday through Saturday and it’s a breeze — much easier than the “casual but neat” and the like. 2-3 blazers is fine, and perfectly fine is they are both/all navy, depending on how much of a fashionista your son is. A few ties is enough…DS May be wearing the same 2 ties since starting freshman year. The Lands End wrinkle free shirts are great; even DS requests them. A week’s worth of shirts is plenty; the laundry cycle is generally 4 days. E&R Laundry offers a higher level service that includes all dry cleaning, so they can put everything from soccer socks to blazers in the laundry bag, and it’s all covered within the flat fee (at the lower level, they charge by individual piece for “special handling” items). DS does actually do some of his own laundry — “special” things like particular shorts that “can’t” get lost — though we haven’t really experienced much of any loss through E&R.
Not only is ironing not happening, but I doubt kids are allowed to have irons in their rooms, and even if they are provided in common areas of the dorm, it’s just not happening.
