Quarters
Snacks that will last for awhile
Dry Erase board for his door
Dictionary
Thesaurus
Anything that can be cooked in a microwave (popcorn-soup etc)
Dryer Sheets
Pens
Notebooks
Pencils
Pencil Sharpener
Any type of school supply
Flip flops (from old navy or somewhere like that)
You could put this type of stuff in one of those plastic baskets that he could use to put his "shower" stuff (they sell them at Linens N Things-BBB-Target etc)

I just had a great idea you can buy a really nice large laundry hamper to put all of this stuff in
Also he probably wont use them but what about cleaning supplies??
