1. Alarm clock radio/CD player:
With limited space, every item must count. In most dorms, you won't be able to play a large stereo loud, so this smaller unit works perfectly. If you can find a unit with a telephone, you'll have fewer items to move.
2. Toolbox with tools:
You won't be able to borrow dad's tool kit when you're away from home. That's why your toolbox should contain all of the essentials to survive dorm life -- a regular and Phillips-head screwdriver, hammer, nails, screws, ruler, tape, glue, and wrench.
3. Dishes for two:
Even if you have a meal plan, you'll want to have dishes in your room for everything from snacks to take-out. Remember forks, knives, spoons, plates, bowls, cups (plastic, so they don't break), and mugs. And, most importantly, don't forget the can opener for meals on the go.
4. Sheets and towels:
Remember to check with housing for the correct sheet size, and always include a pillow. (We want you to have a restful sleep that will result in A+ classroom attention.)
5. Laundry hamper:
In addition to storing dirty clothes, a hamper can double for a laundry basket, storage space, or an impromptu end table.
6. Dry-erase board or corkboard
"A cork board allows you to post important information from telephone numbers of significant others, to addresses, to when school assignments are due," advises sophomore Matthew Kerns of Christopher Newport University, Newport News, VA.
7. Plastic storage
As corny as it may sound, large Tupperware containers will come in handy. Easy to stack in the room, or flat enough to slide underneath the bed, use 'em to store loose clothes, towels, books, etc. You will be on your way to a neat and more organized dorm room.
8. Power strip
As Katherine A. Hirsch, a junior at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, says, "The amount of power sockets for a computer alone is enough to need a power strip. If you plan to bring a lot of electronic devices you'll need another one too, since power sockets are not provided in bulk."
9. Fan
Even if your dorm has air conditioning, it may not be reliable. A window fan is always a good backup.
10. Photographs and mementos from home
OK, you could survive without bringing photographs, stuffed animals, and knick knacks, but some reminders of home can help cure your first-year blahs.

1. Comfy pair of jeans and comfy dress slacks
2. sweatshirt with a neutral message you can wear anywhere (i.e., solid, or with your hometown name)
3. Sweatshirt with your favorite sports team, or a message you strongly believe in
4. good pair of sneakers
5. Nice dress or conservative suit for interviews, awards banquets, etc.
6. Good pair of dress shoes
7. Fun makeup/tasteful makeup ("Fun" is the outrageous stuff you love to experiment with, but wouldn't be seen wearing outside the house, "Tasteful" is what you feel good wearing in public
8. Yes, the pearl necklace (and matching earrings) will not let you down! Wear them often and in good health! :-)
9. 2 good-quality turtlenecks which won't pill after the first few washings.
10. A Smile (The least expensive item on the list, but it will not fail to add "zing" to your look!)
Since you have such an interest in looking your best, here's a free tip: never wash your towels with your turtlenecks/polo type shirts. It is the quickest way to make them pill and wear out.
