9TL eeting the stranger that was to be your roommate was quite possibly the most anxiety- laden experience students faced when they roomed blind. Rooming blind was a tough decision for many students and often produced varying results. For some, rooming blind was a blessing in disguise, while for others it was the beginning of a long tedious battle over space G oinq OA 1 lC-O CO and possessions. Either ' way, funny stories and memorable moments resulted Matt Speck, a first- year engineering student, felt his first meeting with his roommate was an excellent start to a good year. It was a gamble going in blind espe- cially since I was in a triple. It was even worse because there was one extra person to worry about. Still, I was really lucky that everything worked out. Not all students were able to cope with the habits or quirks of their roommates. First-year engineering student Sean Sutton said, We actu- ally get along, but it is easier to get things done when he isn ' t around. For instance, he pre- fers to sleep with the window wide open and I detest that, but we get around such things. A first-year business student, who wished to remain anonymous, had trouble ad- justing to living with complete strangers. I was expecting because I was in a triple, that I would be friends with one, but aiv mxciM moJee cuv cuv auL 3 irst-year LSA stu- dent Ralph Zerbonia roomed blind with first-year engineering student Matt Speck in a Couzens triple.

As it turned out, I am friends with neither. Al- though the guys are okay, they just aren ' t similar to me. Some experiences ended in disaster while others ended in friendship , but it all depended on compromise and the attitudes of the people in the room. And, of course, a little blind luck. first-year students Dave Amstel and John Karp order a pizza from Pizza House. As did the major- ity of first-year students, these two men roomed blind. 302 + Rooming Blind

s September rolled around, first-year students frantically scoured through their closets, their parents ' closets, their siblings ' closets, and anywhere else they could look to find those little things that would make their dorm room just like home. Unfortunately for a great many students they could not complete their search within their own homes. Many took part in a AnE ou kyuJAxa xpensive Lxpenence strange tradition the summer before their first semester at the University, and it all cen- tered around shopping. First-year student Curt Davidson was one of many who was forced to splurge on new items before arriving on campus. I had to buy new sheets because my old ones don ' t fit the bed here. Diana Economy, another first-year student, felt that she wasn ' t able to take the necessary lin- ens from her parents. You need your own stuff. Your parents own all the sheets and towels at home anyway. Linens were not the only things many first-year students needed to buy. Hav- ing been warned about the cold Michigan climate, many out- of-state students had to pur- chase new clothes, while oth- ers who were accustomed to southern climates were forced to buy entirely new wardrobes. Sara Wise said, I had to buy new clothes. The climate here is much colder than it is at home. Many students be- lieved that buying new things was simply part of being a first-year student as it created that necessary transition from home to college. Jennifer Elwood, a first-year student, agreed. She believed that buying new things was imperative to break the connection with high school and the old phase of life.

Futons could be used as beds or couches, and they fit neatly under lofts. 304 4 An Expensive Experience Ooum Quod Chip Pe 4800 4900 Fred Taylor-Front Row: Kathenne Livo, Lisa Sharbaugh.
