Like yeah it's nice she uses the flags, but bringing attention to it is what makes it weird. Also, she usually uses the flags because they fit the color theme and are a very nice option for wall decorations in terms of size and looks compared to other things. Just go and look at the other comments about the flag and how people are so emotional over it.. it's not healthy at all to be that emotional over some random person hanging a flag.

When I was in college in 1977, the women had one dorm and the men the other. We were across the quad from each other with the admin building at the top of the U shaped street. The rooms had built in beds, shelves and desks. Painting the rooms was right out. I had a stereo/cassette player/record player deck, my clothes and books, and bedding. There was no option for painting walls (didn't even occur to me). Minimalistic moving in and out was nice.

At my school there was basically upperclassmen dorms, sophomore dorms, and freshmen dorms. Because of a complication I never lived in the freshmen dorms as a freshmen, I just did the same sophomore building twice for 2 years. But these were the differences: Sophomores: a kitchenette with a half size (slightly bigger than a mini I think?) Fridge and a microwave. A suite for 4 people, 2 to each room. And a bathroom in the suite for all 4 people to share. Upperclassmen: a full kitchen, many cabinets, full size fridge with a freezer, oven/stove, and microwave. 4 rooms in a suite, 2 people in each room, so 8 total. Two bathrooms in each suite, one on each side, so there is (theoretically) 4 to each bathroom. My school didn't have forced dorming in any way but they had a forced meal plan. If you lived on campus you were auto enrolled in the meal plan, even if you didn't want it, it was part of the bill.

As an European, I could never imagine sharing a dorm with a person my age at the stage of a young adult. I need privacy and the thought of the bathroom situation is making me even more anxious. I am still traumatised by my last school trip in 8th grade where I avoided the toilet for 5 days. That was a lot of physical pain lol. (I'm referring to the natural stinky situations, I was able to let out the water)

I was randomly assigned my roommate and I’m about to lose my mind. You’re so right about the anxiety. My roommate doesn’t understand boundaries and I feel like i have no real privacy. Our bathrooms haven’t been awful, but I think my roommate is so bad that a community bathroom feels like more privacy than my room.

Yeah, at least here in Spain the standard is to rent an apartment with other students or friends and you get your own room. I did however share a room in my first year, when I lived in my uni's campus apartments. My roommate was nice but it was awful not having privacy. I noped the f out of there as soon as I found a regular apartment that was looking for a roommate.

As an RA, we had similar rules. Fairy lights were allowed, just not against the ceiling. You weren't supposed to hang anything from the ceiling and were heavily encouraged to use command hooks if you were going to put things on the wall. Open heat sources weren't allowed, and extension cords were only allowed if they were a certain brand and power strips had to have a built in breaker switch. Lava lamps would have been a no, so would wax warmers and anything other than a Keurig, microwave, fridge or blender. Anything else had to be taken to the kitchen to use. Luckily and Unluckily, the main girls dorm building at my college turns 100 this year and the rooms I was in (3 different ones) One of them had a little alcove with a mirror that was probably supposed to have a sink at one point but just had a mirror. Every room came with one desk, one chair, one bed and the pieces to loft it and then one dresser. One wing had suites, one wing had double closets and shelves around the double window, the other two had a single closet and a single window. Luckily, we had two kitchens per floor, but hall bathrooms for everyone except the wing with the suites. My roommate and I lofted the beds and tucked our dressers underneath it.

I had a dorm apartment in college, we paid extra. 4 beds 4 baths, so had my own room and a bathroom, with a shared living and kitchen space. Shared the apartment with three other people. Our rooms were super small but it came with a decent amount of moveable furniture so I was able to make myself a massive desk with all of the dressers. It was super useful while doing class online.

In my old college in Canada, we could have small appliances as long as they had an auto-shut off. So I made Kraft Dinner in my rice cooker! @ anyone going to dorms: When making rice, adding canned corn and things like Sazon Goya packets makes it a lot tastier! You just put them in with the rice before setting it to Cook Just make sure the cooker fits your dorm's rules, and follow the instructions/tutorials

In all the dorms I stayed in, you could have small kitchen appliances (coffee makers, electric tea kettles, etc) so long as it was plugged into a surge protector and it had an auto shut-off function. The big no-no was extension cords, especially ones without a grounding wire (aka the two-pronged ones)

The dorms I lived in college were super small and I mean small. You could have two beds two wardrobes and a long desk that was basically a large slab of like wood or something that both of you used. We had public bathrooms. Had to brush our teeth, do makeup, etc in the bathroom. There was one window. And like white concrete walls. And a mounted mirror. You had a shared kitchen in the building and couldn't have most cooking objects. You were allowed only a mini fridge but it couldn't have a freezer above it. And obviously like you could have stuff to make the food in. Oh, and walls were not sound proof 🙄 but genuinely college was a good experience

I went to culinary school for college and our dorms were apartment buildings they bought and converted into dorms, so it was 2 bedroom (2 people per room) 2 bathroom full kitchen, living room and washer and dryer PER unit. It was fantastic, and we got to keep our cars for like a $20 fee.

I'm in the UK and our accommodation was a lot smaller than this room (but all rooms were singles), but we did have a kitchen to share per floor, and a bathroom per floor (this may be different for campus universities). We definitely couldn't paint the walls etc, but there were no rules about what you could/couldn't have, except no smoking inside, and no one ever inspected our rooms that I know of.

I went to University and we had best doorms in country (Latvia, Europe). They are small appartment style: super small entrance way with build in closet and fridge if you had one (or was left from previous students) and mirror, then 2 small rooms for 4 students and decent sized bathroom. Each floor had 2 kitchens. We could mount things on wall and had to bring our own furniture. Rooms only had 2 beds. We had to clean our rooms ourselves including bathroom. We also could organize parties in dorms like typical American comedies show! A lot of fun memories from that time. Price was super affordable as well. You could also choose your roommates in advance if you went there with friends.

in Russia, we are allowed to do whatever we want with the dorm rooms because usually the rooms are very old and they look bad so the administery doesn't really mind if we do renovations ourselves. we also can have anything and i really mean ANYTHING in our rooms i.e. we have two coffee brewers, a microwave, a ton of candles, and two kettles. Usually we already are supplied with a cooking stove, and that's it. we have to buy fridges and washers ourselves, but they're often cheap enough for students. i like dorms.

The college I went to where I stayed in dorms was built in 1938. Each floor had a communal bathroom and a communal kitchen. The ground floor had a commons area with couches and a big TV. It was in the Midwest, and the building had No Air-conditioning. It was torture. Both years I paid extra to have a single because the idea of sharing with a total stranger was horrendously unappealing. My 2nd year I got this teeeeeny tiny room, but it had a private bath room with its own shower. So it was worth it. Like, I literally have a walk-in closet in my house right now that is larger than that dorm room was. It had enough room for a bed, a small desk, and a gap for a ‘closet’ where I put my mini fridge.

I go to a STEM and Arts highschool and our dorms (we're required to live on campus and most of us only go home once a month or less) are very similar to college dorms. We are however spoiled because we have suite-style rooms :) We're allowed Keurig-style coffee pots and electric kettles and mini-fridges, but no personal microwaves. We can use command strips and such but we can't hang curtains and we have weekly room inspections so paint is a no-no. I don't know how many RMs and the like colleges have but each residential hall has 2 per floor, with the exception of first floor because there's not as many students. The dorms are really nice here and we get lots of storage space in the closet. I am going to be very let down when I live in college dorms, I think.

All of the dorms at my university did have communal kitchens in the basements ... They were also as strict as yours for hot plates and toasters, etc. but they never checked our dorms for them. We didn't have sinks in our rooms, but we had wall mounted mirrors with a light and all the walls in my dorms were white cinderblock. Freshmen were not forced to live on campus -- but we also didn't have enough dorms at the time, my first semester I was in overflow housing at a nearby hotel, which has since been demolished and is now a cancer center.
