<p>D2 was in a overflow triple freshman in Gilbert. (Normal double made into a triple.) The room was cramped until the beds were lofted. The crowding wasn’t horribly oppressive–they weren’t piled on top one another or anything but floor space was at a premium. Also the parents of one roomie left their student with cases upon cases of bottled water and snack food–which also took up a chunk of floor space. (Seriously, did they think she was going to starve because the dining hall was a whole 100 yards away? I don’t think the case of Easy-Mac ever got eaten. Or all the chip and cookie paks.)</p>
<p>Once beds were lofted there was plenty of room to spread out and room for a 5x8 rug (maybe even 2) and comfy chair.</p>
<p>Any suggestions about arranging the room will depend on the room’s exact dimensions. All triples are not the same size. (And not all of them rectangles.)</p>
