<p>I understand that microwaves and the like are not officially allowed in the dorms, but given that I don't like using microwaves anyway, I was wondering:</p>
<p>Do the dorms (or buildings containing them) contain conventional cooking facilities ("conventional" would basically be a stove/hot plate and a conventional/convection oven)?</p>
<p>Are small refrigerators/freezers allowed in the dorm rooms?</p>
<p>Yes, small fridges are allowed. I don't know about the other residential colleges, but Whitman has cooking facilities on every other floor (alternating with the laundry facilities). My D likes to bake and made cookies, etc. several times last year.</p>
<p>There is actually a microwave fridge combo you can rent (eventhough you don't care to use micro). I think some of the other residential college have some provisions for cooking.</p>
<p>Witherspoon (part of Rocky) has a really nice kitchen in the basement. Holder (Rocky) has small kitchens scattered throughout. Campbell (again, Rocky) sucks and has nothing. I don't know about the other residential colleges.</p>
