How much room in the room?

Which dorm are you in? Quad dorm rooms are positively spacious! Sue B rooms are not as big, but are still decent sized.

*Each * student in each room has a wardrobe (stand alone closet) with a big drawer at the bottom, plus a 3 drawer dresser and a desk with drawers. Plenty of room for most individuals.

There is not additional storage space in the dorm basement for bulky stuff like luggage or footlockers. Anything you bring must stay in your room. D stores her rolling duffle and suitcase(s) on the top of the wardrobe.

Since we live far from UR and had to fly there, D packed 1 rolling duffle, 1 backpack (computer, plus other stuff), 1 carry-on bag (musical instrument) and 1 largish suitcase. The luggage contained her clothes, shoes, 2 winter coats, snow boots, towels, sheets (2 sets), personal stuff (like mirror, photos, hairbrush, etc) comforter cover, and a down pillow.

She mailed her printer and box of assorted stuff (cables, desk lamp, office supplies, textbooks) to herself and picked it up at move in. She bought pillows, comforter, mattress topper and personal grooming supplies locally during/after move in. (Walmart, Target)

Remember everything you bring to campus has to be moved out at the end of the school year.
