plastic plates mugs the thing you can attach to the side of your bed to hold remotes,tissues,magazines,pens and the such a small rug a waste basket a cork message board a dry erase board for the outside of the door a dry erase calendar a desk lamp a comfy chair that can either fold or fit in a closet a shower curtain or a regular curtain to use as a door for the closet tap lights for the closet a clip light for her bed so she can read while her roomie sleeps a dvd rack microwave/mini fridge under the bed storage
do they have bunk beds or loft beds? if they have neither she could get one of those cool over the bed storage things... bed bath and beyond has them on sale right now for super cheap
measuring cup a big bowl for popcorn
lots of pillows
either disposable utensils or a ton of real ones (everyone borrows them and they get lost quick) plastic drink glasses
a velcro or magnetic dartboard

Re: What does a dorm room need?
can i ask what school?
we also werent allowed any of that electric 'stuff' but in about a month we had a toaster, water heater, forman grill, microwave, toaster oven..
the rule is.. if you cant see it you cant be blamed for it.
the kitchen in my dorm was 4 floors down with no elevator and no windows...(prison, and it was dirty)
not to applaud bad behavior.. but you realize you need all those not allowed items real fast.

when I was in college bed lifts were the ****. You couldn't find them anywhere but now they have them at BBB

I'd be careful though. Everyone else was allowed to have them at my school but me because I lived across from the Resident Advisor so the RA's were constantly around our dorm making sure we weren't doing anything illegal. They confiscated my grill

My sister wanted one thing - a copy of my driver license so she could be the cool girl with proof on campus.

Re: What does a dorm room need?
the usual cool stuff. Linens and things and bed bath and beyond usually have alot of stuff.
you could get her sheets! They sell the x long twins there since most dorm beds are that size

BBB has a TON of awesome dorm stuff on sale right now. Def check it out. all of their EXTRA LONG twin sheets seem to be on sale, and if not all of them, the cool ones are. OH! it's not really a dorm ROOM thing but a dorm thing that's a must... a bathrobe, a really cute and easily identifiable as hers shower caddy, and flip flops.
a full length over the door mirror would prob be great too. an iron and a mini ironing board too.

it's funny b/c i only dormed for one semester. I loved dorm a life. Actually to be honest, when FH and I moved into our apartment in March i said 'OMG I can't wait till July/August!' he asked why and i said 'DORM SALES!!'
i still live like i'm in a dorm. cold pizza for breakfast and all...

HAHAHAA I WAS AN R.A. I didn't care what anyone had as long as I didn't see it or smell it. What I can't get in trouble for you will not get in trouble for...that was my policy!

I refused to give my sister a copy of mine...she's 6 and a half years younger! At least she's old enough now!
