There is no storage available on the campus. 学生 need to contact local storage 如果不想带回家,公司可以在夏天存放物品. 尤其建议你利用假期时间洗牌/换掉随身物品 时令单品. 学生 should bring anything non-essential home with them during spring break to avoid too much stuff to pack in May.
All halls 有 Resident Assistants. RAs are students who live and work in the halls. They are supervised by the professional staff, the Area Coordinators. 因为他们 are students (and often athletes, club leaders, 等.), they are not available 24 hours 一天. RAs can give advice, answer most basic questions and steer a student to the 寻求帮助,报告维护问题,执行政策,计划活动. 助教不会叫醒学生去上课,确保学生吃得好, 等. These are basic life skills the student is expected to do for themselves as an 成人.
期望学生在到达之前具备基本的独立生活技能 校园:如何与室友交谈,与他人合作生活,如何清洁自己 房间(以及作为高年级学生的套房,浴室),如何洗衣服,基本的烹饪 skills, the basic skills needed to live in a community with other people. 调整 上大学,在一个新地方生活,适应不同的日常生活,不同的 and increased intellectual challenges- is hard enough. 有技能的学生 照顾好自己的人会更容易适应,表现出更多的自信 in their ability to adjust to college and be successful.
学生 are allowed 带 a fridge. 你可以把它调到4.4立方英尺冰箱. Think about what you will need the fridge for. If you will need it for a lot of drinks 至于食物,请选4.4. Very little can be put into the smaller, cube fridges. 然而, none of the first year halls 有 an elevator. 如果你拿不动,想想 about how you’re going to get it up the stairs.
学生 are allowed 带 a microwave. Considering the size of the 房间, microwaves
应该小于1吗.2立方英尺. A bigger fridge is more useful and worth the investment
of space than a large microwave.
学生 are also allowed 带 a television, although most students now watch
笔记本电脑上的节目. If you do bring a tv, the walls cannot be damaged nor anything
除了海报,都贴在上面. As for the size of the tv, the 房间 are not large
and big tvs are typically damaged quickly. Save the big tv for your first post-college
公寓!
The college does not insure students’ belongings. If something is stolen or damaged, the college will not replace it. Verify that your student’s belongings are insured 要么通过你的房主保险,要么如果没有,也没有提供,那就去找 房东的保险. There are companies that specialize in college student insurance.
Yes, almost every firstyear on campus has a roommate and they do just fine! 对于许多 同学们,和别人合住一个房间是一种新的体验,但这是一种至关重要的生活 skill that is needed for the rest of your life. Typically, students experiencing a 人生中的第一次室友有很多东西要学:基本的交流 谈判技巧,想要和需要的区别,如何合作生活 对另一个人来说,身体接触的重要性(而不仅仅是…… 发短信!), being mindful of another person’s needs and balancing them with their own.
带一整年的东西会占用太多宝贵的空间 房间! 我们有商店! There are 2 large grocery stores in town, Redners and Acme, and 2 small, specialized ones in addition to the weekly farmer’s market. 2小的 grocery stores are Chestertown Natural Foods and Los Jarochos Mexican Grocery. 每一个 Saturday morning all year round, there is a farmer’s market in the Fountain Park, 市中心Chestertown.
家居用品有几家一元店、皮布尔斯百货公司和Welcome 首页. Welcome 首页 has kitchen, bed and bath items while a few doors down, Twigs and Teacups also has a variety of items for the home. Downtown Chestertown has a variety of stores and you can find most things you need.
为了定期“囤货”国际杂货,学生们会开车去商店
比如埃利科特市的H-Mart. 这是1.5 hours away but for the occasional trip, it
makes a nice day trip driving right past Annapolis and the outlet malls. 带冰
还有一个冷却器! (or two) That area also has a variety of smaller, ethnic grocery stores.
对于购物中心和大型商店,学生们开车去米德尔敦、安纳波利斯或克里斯蒂安娜.
多年来,我监督了成千上万的学生搬进来,这里有一些建议:
• Water is available on the Eastern Shore and it’s good water! 没有必要
bring cases and cases of bottled water. Invest in a filter instead- you can send new
filters to the student periodically via Amazon. 它节省了很多空间!
• Same goes with ramen noodles or any other bulk food item. 每年五月,我们都会捐出几个
价值2万辆的拉面、Chef Boyardee和其他学生没用过的食物.
▪ If the student “might” need it or hasn’t used it in a year, don’t bring it. 任何东西
可以邮寄吗. Typically, if it’s not here and not a critical daily item, they
不要注意到它不见了. We see a lot of non-critical items thrown out in May that
students realize they never used all year and don’t need. (当我们说了很多,
it’s about 7 industrial sized dumpster loads)
要带什么
我们的 装箱单 是一个通用指南. Many students bring too much stuff! 计划换季 休息时的事情. The more you bring home for spring break, the less you'll 争相在五月收拾行李!
准备好我们的 零废弃物入住! 九州娱乐官网致力于可持续发展,并鼓励学生和家庭 帮助. Little things add up to make a difference in an area known to be an ecological 想知道.
你的 residence hall room comes with an extra long twin bed and mattress, desk and 椅子,梳妆台,壁橱或衣柜,小书架或书架,顶灯. Rooms 有 tile floors and window blinds. In each hall, there is a laundry room with 洗衣机和烘干机. If possible, talk to your roommate when you are planning what 带. 然而, if you are unable to do so, pack possible double items in a way to make it easier to leave in the vehicle to go back home. Keep in mind that college-owned furniture may not be removed from your room.
与其从商店“借”一辆购物车,不如买一辆这样的车 的车. Residential Life suggests getting one that is folding and has durable wheels that can go over long str等hes of brick (we 有 a lot of brick walkways here!). 帮助搬入/搬出,洗衣(如果你的楼层有洗衣间),带 大量的东西,以活动(野餐在绿地或体育场附近,任何人?).
Don’t forget- candles that use a burning flame are not allowed nor is incense. 然而, there are so many alternatives now. Flameless candles that 有 flickering motion look incredibly real and create a realistic candlelit atmosphere in a room. 学生 也可以使用小彩灯——只是要确保灯泡不会变热,也不要放置任何东西 cloth or paper on or near them.
插入式清新剂和油扩散器很好,但它们确实占用插头,所以要注意 of how many electronics you are bringing and what would best suit your needs. 无论 you choose, these are also small items that need refills. 设置你的自动驾驶订单 and save the precious space in the room. Or 父母/Guardians, send periodic care packages with things like refills and other seasonal items. 当学生带来这些 提前打包的东西会被收起来(通常深埋在床底下) and forgotten about until May move out. Some items just don’t work well in small residence hall 房间, such as electronic tart warmers (spilled hot wax anyone?)
在夏季,初秋和晚春,要知道,东海岸是非常非常 潮湿的. 我们被水包围着! It’s not uncommon to 有 a 90% 潮湿的ity level every day during those seasons. Some students find that having a small space de潮湿的ifier 当他们搬进来的时候,把它带回家,假期把它放在店里,然后再带回来,会有帮助吗 spring break to use in their room again. Rooms are small- you don’t need a big one but you do need to remember to empty it out daily.
如果您携带处方药(特别是贵重物品),请携带护照 社会保障卡(如果你打算找工作的话),或者其他小的东西 valuable, strongly consider bringing a small safe. Some roll under the bed, some look 比如小橱柜. 只要适合你!
有些贵重物品根本不应该进入大学——奶奶的戒指、贵重的珠宝、 爷爷的传家宝—— none of this should be in a residence hall. Rooms are small, things get broken, lost, if carelessly left out, stolen. 此外, students should never 有 large amounts of cash in their 房间 or wallets. 任何数量 over $100 is too much- use your bank!
Swiffer like products 有 been a bonus for college students. 两个都拿来干的 cloth and wet cloths, which brings us to rugs.
大的,房间大小的地毯(总是8x10)很难保持清洁,在这样的真空 a tight space, invariably are filthy by about December. 宿舍不是 the place for expensive or one of a kind rugs! The antique Persian rug needs to stay at home, safely away from spilled soda, ground in cookies, the inevitable mud 多雨的东海岸.
使用多个 耐洗的 throw rugs are much more functional and sanitary. While your rug(s) is in the wash, 你可以扫地,然后用湿布快速拖地,这样就会很干净 地板和地毯. Rag rugs, cotton woven, even large bathroom rugs are all meant to be washed in the washing machine and are easy to maintain.
急救箱在房间里是必不可少的(如果带着车,一个专为急救箱设计的) 汽车也是).
别忘了带手电筒和备用电池——每个人都会忘记的 一个手电筒! Power outages don’t happen often but when they do- it’s important to 有.
如果你特别注重安全,更愿意投资于有用的长期投资, you can look at getting a hand crank weather radio/flashlight combo. 大多数人都有手机 还有充电器功能.
