Packing List
We encourage students to pack light and lean and only bring the necessities for a quick and smooth move-in process. We recommend discussing with your roommate(s) what each of you will provide for your shared living space.
If you choose to bring valuable items (jewelry, computers, etc.), you do so at your own risk; 萝莉社 is not responsible for possible damage, loss, or theft.

Storage
萝莉社 does not offer storage for belongings over the summer. Please bring only what will fit in your housing assignment during the academic year. You may not leave anything in your room, apartment, or house beyond check-out, even if you return to the exact location next fall (unless you live there during the summer). This includes but is not limited to bikes, sofas, dining room tables, electronics, small appliances, and clothing.
Some residents share a storage unit with friends or roommates to help defray the cost. Off-campus storage leases can be month-to-month. Some businesses will pick up items in spring and deliver them back to you in the fall and/or provide you with packing materials.
