Question for Bowdoin International Music Festival Alums

Hi! I hope everyone’s summer is going well! We just got financial aid awards for D’s sophomore year so that was fun.

I have a question about Bowdoin for those of you whose kiddos have attended - about the dorms. Will my D need a fan? The heat and humidity in MA when she was there for BUTI was intense but will ME be as bad? Are the dorms air conditioned? (me, an AZ resident can’t imagine buildings without air conditioning… haha).

Thanks for advice! Here’s to successful summers!

(And it has been wonderful to have her back for a few weeks, violin filling the house again!)

The dorms (which also double as practice rooms) do not have AC. It can be really hot, humid, and uncomfortable. Fan is advisable – and possibly a dehumidifier.

@StringPop Thank you!!
