BOXES TO BEAUTY For most students their dorm rooms become a way to express themselves and their possessions. After lay- ing the carpet, a great ne- cessity especially in the winter when the floors be- come ice cold, most stu- dents begin hanging post- ers and pictures on the walls. Each one makes the room look a little more like home. Many students opt for lofts, a great way to es- cape making the bed and providing much more space in the room. Others have added hammocks, boats?!? and bars to heighten the uniqueness of their dorm rooms. Is there a campus? ' Park Office on What ' s a kayak doing in your room?
