<p>okay, so i’ve scoured the res life website, it seems that the freshmen dorms do not come with a couch provided for the common room- is that correct? im thinking of bringing a futon for the room but want to make sure that bowdoin is not already providing one beforehand.</p>
<p>thanks :)</p>
<p>there is a couch provided, at least that was the case with my son’s dorm–Coleman–it’s the same, wooden, furniture in all the freshman dorms. cheers to a great freshman experience!</p>
<p>hey morandi! I’m going to be in coleman this year :)</p>
<p>and yes, they do provide a couch to all common rooms. though you may want to bring chairs for extra seating in case friends are over and etc.</p>
<p>There is one couch provided, but my freshman year we brought a couple extras and I would suggest you bring at least one other.</p>
<p>what about if you’re living in a double? i know the common rooms tend to be smaller than in quads… is there any space for extra seating etc or is it already pretty cramped?</p>
<p>Depending on how you set up your room their may be room for an extra chair or two in a double. You probably could not fit two couches.</p>
