So I am going to be new in the spring of 2012. I will be staying in the Printy Dorm. I hear it is Uber small, so I was wondering how much was too much to pack??? Any ideas??? thanks!!!

Hi, Brittany! My name is Olivia, and I visited that dorm in the fall. It is extremely small, so definitely don't bring your entire house! I am no expert, but I would say that you should begin with all of the basics and then pick any extra stuff you want based on its size and importance to you. There's a list of things to pack at

and once you know who your roomate is, you should try to coordinate with her. I think what I'm going to do is pack everything I need and want, then when I move in I might decide to leave some things with my parents if it's too crowded.

I hope that helps!

Proverbs 3:3 "Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart."

All I can say is that organization is key. Bed risers, bins, drawers, shelving... it all helps. My roommate and I started out in Printy (we live in Willetts now), and I'm still not sure how we managed to cram so much stuff in such a small room and still manage to have our beds unbunked. One thing to keep in mind is that Printy only has one closet and one dresser to split, so only expect to fit about half of a closet/dresser's worth of clothes into that space, and be prepared to provide any additional space yourself. Without additional shelving over the desk or bed and putting bins of stuff under the bed it would be hard, but I think you'll find it's amazing how much you can cram into a small space... and spacebags are terrific for out-of-season clothes!
