We encourage all students to pack lightly this fall and focus on
bringing only essential and important items to campus; to
have a bag of essential items organized in the event that we
need to relocate students or if students need to leave
campus on short notice; and finally, to work with your
family to have a plan for vacating campus quickly should the
need arise. Bringing fewer possessions will also make for a
smoother and faster Move-In.
Keeping this in mind, students may wish to bring items from the list below:
- rug, 9' x 12' (a good approximation for most rooms)
- window curtains (Window treatments such as curtains must be made of fabric that resists or retards the spreading of flames and has either UL fire rating #723 or NFPA 225. Windows vary from room to room and we advise you to wait to purchase your curtains until after you arrive.)
- computer (Questions? Contact G-Tech at 717-337-6935 or
gtech@gettysburg.edu)
- small vacuum cleaner
- first-aid kit
- fan
- robe, shower shoes, caddy for shower supplies
