Synopsis: The Ultimate Guide to Surviving and Thriving in the Dorm
Dorm life offers you a great chance to meet new people and try new things. But leaving the comforts of home for the first time to enter the roommate-having, small-room-sharing, possibly-coed-bathroom-using world of the dorms can be overwhelming and intimidating.
The College Dorm Survival Guide offers expert advice and the inside scoop on:
• Choosing the right residence hall for you
• Getting along with your roommate (and handling conflict)
• Bathroom, laundry, and dining hall survival
• Dealing with stress, depression, and safety issues
From avoiding the dreaded Freshman 15 to decorating your space, this informative and funny guide gives experts' advice on everything you need to know to enjoy dorm living to the fullest.
