Dropped off our Freshman kiddo last week (Aug 2023) & learned a few good things ...
1) If arriving early to campus (many athletes do), there's not much guidance on where to go/how to start. So.....
- 1st: Admin Bldg (LR McDonald), 3rd floor & get Student ID.
- 2nd: get room key (housing info on MyLWC Portal) at Residence Life Offices (small round-hut-bldg just down from water tower).
- if you kid needs a sport physical, the Campus Nurse does these at the Biggers Center, her email is on LWC Site.
2) Our son met his RA & he was really great. Important - it's a DRY campus & NO smoking. EITHER ONE can get you ejected from your sport-team (not sure about academically, but they are REALLY strict about these rules).....some kids last year tested this & were immediately excused from their teams.
3) In most girls dorms, RA will get male visitors ID upon arrival & return it only when they leave (no overnight guests/boys after visiting hours). Same visiting hours with boys, but don't think they check/get ID's like girls dorm?
4) Rooms are small! They have a mattress, bedframe, desk & dresser (3-drawer) & a short (4-foot?) closet bar/pole & a shelf above. Walls (in his) were cream painted cinder block.
- Bring plastic bins for under-bed storage, you can fit 3 x 66-qt (you could also use plastic drawers, but our son wanted airtight bins, which is smart in a male athletes dorm!).
- *bed was a twin NOT twin XL* (Horton Hall Freshm.Dorm) **bring a mattress encasement unless you don't care about germs at all** We also brought a mattress foam topper.
- you mite want an office chair, the chair they provide is metal folding chair type.
- there is room for a mini-fridge & microwave, we also brought a Keurig AND an air purifier (recommended by his Advisor). We also brought a smaller air-tight bin (20 qt?) to keep food items in, these buildings are older & probably have critters!
-**bring at least one surge-protector that is 10-ft long, bring TWO if you bring refer/microwave....the dorms don't have many plugs & they are old. We found a great "surge-bar" at WMart with 6-8 plugs spaced apart & had a 10-ft cord. Perfect for all small appliances to plug into. Then we had a 2nd one for his PC equipment. BE SURE to get NEW surge protector strips - this area gets brown outs & surges & it will kill electronics QUICK. Surge Protectors only last about 1-2 years!
- a nice bonus is to get them a LifeStraw Pitcher or Bottle
- Horton Hall, Laundry (get them laundry pods!) was on 1st floor & bathrooms (each floor) are community bathrooms, so shower shoes & a bath-caddy are def helpful!
5) Freshman do NOT need a car! Everything on campus is SUPER close. Our son found friends within 24 hours he could catch a ride to WalMart with for incidentals. So while it might be nice for them to have it, it's certainly not "needed".
Hope this helps!
