<p>does anyone know when we get things like our email and rooming assignments and the likes? what time were they given out last year I guess is what I'm asking.</p>
<p>sorry...I'm bored and want to know how long I have to wait, thanks.</p>
<p>My son received his a few weeks before school started last year. Grinnell sent most materials at a 'leisurely pace' I would say! He didn't hear about his roommate until a few weeks before school, either...</p>
<p>His email address, by the way, is <a href="mailto:lastnamefirsttwolettersoffirstname@grinnell.edu">lastnamefirsttwolettersoffirstname@grinnell.edu</a></p>
<p>My daughter also received her info sometime in late July or early August. And her email address is the same as robyrm's son's -- but unless you're getting business cards printed, I'm not sure you can do much with it until they actually give you an account! Her first year, she was on North Campus and loved it. This year she's in one of the new dorms. And next year she's got a single on North and is pretty happy about that, except her best friends are on other parts of campus. I'm not sure that's all bad - just means she'll make more new friends. Grinnell mixes upper level students in with freshmen. My daughter has always had friends in all classes.</p>
