Oh well. Learning the combination is only a small part of the annual drudery of moving in. Also included is the joyous task of 47 trips from your car (or in some cases, your U-haul) to your room. Pity the people who fear elevators and live on the fourth floor of Ward Hall. It ' s not all bad though: look around and you ' ll probably find and O-team member to help you carry your stuff. Then there ' s refrigerator rental and the potential for non-Beans food. After a couple of days the excitement (?) of moving in and illegal painting of rooms goes away and everyone settles down to a regular routine. In a dorm, though, chaos is a regular routine for many students. You must contend with noisy neighbors and wild parties. Then again, you might have to deal with overcritical roommates who do crazy things like study and go to bed early. Then there are the dreaded trips to the bathroom down the hall. With luck, the showers may have curtains and the doors might close. But there is some hope. With the wide variety of housing Rollins offers, from tiny Matthews House to giant McKean Hall, chances are that next year you won ' t be haunted with fears of bugs, disputes over hall phones and temperamental coke machines. But don ' t hold your breath, and remember you get to go through the fun of moving in again in just three months. Sissy DeMuth 23
