<p><em>Technically</em> the dorm provides vacuums to use, however I’ve never lived in a dorm (I’ve lived in 3 different ones at Tulane) that has had a working vacuum. They are old, beat up, and worn out. I bought <a href=“http://www.walmart.com/ip/Eureka-Boss-Bagless-Stick-Vacuum/12174201”>http://www.walmart.com/ip/Eureka-Boss-Bagless-Stick-Vacuum/12174201</a> this vacuum, which breaks down into two pieces. It’s cheap, small, and most of all, it works. I know guys very rarely have their own vacuum, but once my guy friends found out I had it, someone was borrowing it all the time.</p>
