Starting it off Right The dorm room looks quite spacious when students first walk in and visualize how it will look after it has been filled with personal belongings. After the last load is finally carried up or down the stairs and stacked in the middle of the floor, however, the look is somewhat cluttered and messy. Dorm rooms seem destined to maintain this appearance as they continue to look slightly messy even after everything is unpacked. Dorm dwellers at Sul Ross found this to be true after the dorms opened on Sunday, August 25. Directors, with the help of RAs, checked each student in as others waited their turns, meeting new people and greeting old friends. Residents who previously lived in the dorms noticed a few changes this year. Lawrence Hall, for example, is no longer used. Mountainside on the other hand is housing more student. Also, women are living in the south side and men in the north, opposite of past years. Minor changes occur, but dorm life remains the same. The chaos of moving in is only the beginning. Pam Wilton SMILE - Angie Widdowfield pauses for a quick snap shot as she carries another load of belongings into her room at Mountainside. IT’S GOOD TO BE BACK School can be fun as Tripp Davenport demonstrates with Tia Lewis and Deon Lewis at Mountainside Dormitory. LOADED DOWN - Every available inch of space in this car was used to transport someone’s belongings to Sul Ross. Unloading will be the fun part. CHECKING IN - Cindy Cowan, an RA at Moun¬ tainside, tells Lilia Alvarado which room she has been assigned. ANOTHER LOAD - Alexia Simmons seems to be enjoying herself as she lugs another load up the stairs while moving in. WAITING FOR A ROOM Cindy Acosta and Tiffany Beaver wait in line to be checked into Mountainside Dormitory. 22 Moving In
