<p>My daughter will be a freshman at Muhlenberg and was wondering what the beds are like in the freshman dorms. Do you think an egg crate, featherbed, etc. is a good idea? Also, do the laundry machines require quarters? I assume the laundry room is in the basement, so laundry could require a four story hike down and up. Are halogen desk lamps acceptable? Thank you!!!</p>
<p>I strongly recommend a featherbed for the beds. I have a featherbed and absolutely love it. If you have a featherbed, an egg crate is unnecessary. Yes, the laundry machines require quarters. $1.00 to wash, $0.75 to dry.</p>
<p>I forgot about the lamps. Muhlenberg says halogen lamps are not allowed, however no one checks. I had a halogen desk lamp and none of the RAs ever questioned me.</p>
