<p>I have Portland connections, so thanks!</p>
<p>great lakes mom,
We were out there visitng Reed while on vacation, so the action fgiures defintiely reinforced the quirky, nerdy vibe!</p>
<p>Choosing which books (and DVDs) to take to college was a huge deal to my kids. They knew that they would be buying a lot of books there, and they would have access to a multi-million volume library, and space was limited, and everything had to be shipped/moved/stored, etc. So they limited themselves to 8-10 books apiece (and a few DVD sets). What they brought were really the things that meant the most to them, plus what they were reading that week. And, between them, all of the seasons of Buffy, The Vampire Slayer.</p>
<p>Their dorm rooms have bookshelves, though.</p>
