<p>Need advice on whether or not to bring these:</p>
<p>-forks/spoons/bowls
-Surge Protector
-Comforter
-Slippers
-Extension Cords</p>
<p>and also if Cornell provides these during the Summer:
-Mirror
-Hangers
-Phone
-Clock
-Desk Lamps
-Curtain</p>
<p>I believe desk lamps are provided in all of the dorms and there are curtains or blinds on the windows. A phone is in the room...but people hardly use them anymore. Clocks and hangers aren't provided...not too sure about mirror set up. My dorm room in the Transfer Center had 2...but I'm sure it differs from building to building. </p>
<p>If you're living in the dorm I think it's a good idea to have a surge protector...gives you extra outlets as well.</p>
<p>Anyone know if its going to be cold during the summer?
I have absolutely no room for a comforter (limit of 2 bags on the bus)</p>
<p>No...Ithaca tends to be hot in the summer. We're having a cool spell now...mid 60s.</p>
<p>do most people eat food in their room?
Kinda unsure whether the bowls/eating utensils are needed
I do however have a lot of snacks :)</p>
<p>The only time you won't be eating in the dining halls will either be when you eat off-campus, or late night snacks. Even so, late night snacks will probably just be pizza or finger foods, so you don't really need to pack plates and utensils. Maybe just buy a roll of paper towels at Bear Necessities in RPCC.</p>
<p>and dont forget that if you ever need something, the cornell bus system takes you directly to the mall where there is <em>kinda weird</em> a target. yes. a flippin' target. in the mall. thats ithaca for you!</p>
<p>theres also a wegmans down the road too...i dont know if there is a bus route that goes there</p>
<p>The bus to Wegmans isn't very convenient. But, the same bus that goes to Target also stops at Tops.</p>
<p>I brought a bowl, some utensils and a drinking cup. I usually had some quick fix foods in my room...easy mac, oatmeal and Lean Cuisine that I would eat for those night when I got home too late to go to the dining hall.</p>

<p>--you will get everything except hangers, clocks...I'd bring a desk fan in case it gets tooo hot, and also an umbrella!!---</p>
<p>Wait, so you do get a mirror in your room?</p>
<p>yeah there is a mirror usually above your chest drawers or inside your clothes bureau...</p>
<p>there is always one in the hallway or inside the bathroom...some people prefer hand mirrors so w/e you prefer...</p>
<p>TurtleFever: As somebody who just finished doing room inventory cards for PSP, I can tell you that you just might want to bring a mirror. Every room in Becker doesn't have a mirror. Its not needed, though, as the bathrooms are all well-equipped.</p>
<p>ooo they stay in becker this year? wow</p>
<p>I always believe in some mysterious stuff, so I wouldn't want to use the mirror Cornell provides.</p>
