<p>Hey, Thanks in advance for answering these questions. </p>
<p>1) Do I need to bring an iron from home, or is one provided for in the dorm (like in a common area)? </p>
<p>2) Also, is drinking water provided for by UNC? How so? Do I need to buy a purifying filter or something?</p>
<p>Thanks again.</p>
<p>1) bring an iron from home. your dorm will provide a vaccuum cleaner, though.
2) the bathroom sinks have potable water.</p>
<p>If you drink a lot of water and aren't crazy about tap water, get one of the Pur (or other brand) filtered pitchers for your mini fridge. It will save you money over bottled water in the long run because you can use the pitcher to fill bottles and keep them for when you're on the run.</p>
