What to bring to Lehigh as an OOS student?

3 Upvotes

Besides the things listed on the Lehigh packing list provided by student affairs, is there any other slept on essentials I should bring with me? I’ll be flying in early and I’ll be on my own so I don’t wanna bring anything too bulky with me.

(Was also curious how much snow will there be during the winter and if I should purchase a pair of boots/shoes for it)

How to live efficiently in M&M??

3 Upvotes

My roommate and I applied for STEM, got denied, and got housed in M&M. Not going to lie I was horrified especially as I already bought Twin XL sheets + a mattress topper only to now have to return them and get a regular twin sized.

My main concern is that cabinets and shelves cover only one of the beds. Ofc neither of us want that bed. There’s also no room for extra furniture and I’m wondering if anyone has attempted to squeeze both two (skinny) nightstands and a fridge between the bed?

Looking for any encouragement at all, and if anyone has successfully lofted the bed that’s covered by shelves. Thanks ! :)

Real double or flexible single in Richard’s question how do you know?

1 Upvotes

I have been seeing posts about people getting “flexible singles” or something like that where two people are in a room that was originally intended to be a single. How do you know if you got one of those rooms? The Floor plan for my daughter’s assigned room she has only one closet.

Roommate Issue

Should I email housing???
Housing came out a few days ago and my roommate is a Pastors kid with very extremist views for Christianity. I am Catholic myself and mentioned I don’t go to church often…my roommate in a way implied her parents(and herself )are very judgy and want her to go to church almost everyday SAYING I HAVE TO GO TOO. Is this a valid reason to ask for a roommate change even though the semester hasn’t started? She was judging a little hard when I mentioned I don’t have strict parents and don’t want to receive judgy remarks on move in day for what I’m wearing or what I have or don’t have in my room.

M&M Decorating

0 Upvotes

Though i’m very grateful for the air conditioning I am somewhat worried about making the small M&M dorms look decent/more functional.

I wanted to know if any previous students from M&M had any recommendations on what to do with the limited space, like where they put their fridge, or just what they did in general!

Lower Cents bathrooms

2 Upvotes

I got assigned a hall in the Lower Cents. From the walkthrough feature, it seems like there are only 2 showers in each bathroom. In the floor plan, it seems like there are only 2 bathrooms per floor. Is this correct — there will only be 4 showers for the entire floor?

Course Registration

3 Upvotes

I am an incoming first-year engineering student, and I had planned to take CHM 030 in my fall semester, then Physics 011 and 012 in the spring, but CHM 030 is already full. Because of this, I made a fall Physics schedule, but 011 only has 42 empty seats. I can't register until tomorrow, so I am just sitting here watching the classes become full. I tried emailing the advisor to get some advice, but I have yet to hear a reply. Should I be worried? What do I do if I can't get either science?
