Questions about dorms; what to bring etc.

<p>Mumof2Boyz: THANK YOU for all of your posts. Your insight was invaluable for our long distance move to Lehigh. A couple of notes about Dravo: do not rely too heavily on website for EXACT room measurements. Daughter’s room was an odd size and about 20 square feet smaller than indicated on site. The two beds and two desks fit against the walls, but not much else. It is somewhere between a single-size and normal double-size room. Closets: 5’ wide x 3’ deep, with built in drawer (6)/shelf (4) unit in middle which is 24" wide. On either side, there is hanging space/shelves for each kid. However, unlike Mumof2boyz thread, each side of closet had two 18" rods, not two 36" rods. One rod is higher for longer hanging items and one is lower. I’m guessing the difference is boys’ vs girls’ closets. There are two upper 36" wire shelves, and another two 18" shelves above the lower rod. Underbed storage is a must for girls, especially those who can’t make frequent trips home to switch out seasonal clothes.</p>
