My BIL is about to go to college. One of the graduation gifts we got him was a book on the college he's attending. We oredered it at borders. It's called "Off the Record" (college prowler) - they publish one for each school. The authors interview a bunch of students there about all kinds of topics. We liked it b/c it gave the student perspective about college life, academics, etc.

Sorry, but the first thing I thought of was "pregnancy" related things -- LMAO! I'm so tipsy right now. Sorry! How about Hangover Remedy Pills?

ETA: Definitely quarters too!

I didn't even know that they had that, that's a great idea.

Ahhh...I went to Binghamton.

GC's for TGIF's is always good. Nothing really good to eat up there. There is also an Outback. Lowes movie passes. Only theater there. Quarters for laundry. Rooms are really tiny, so no knick knackie stuff, will be in the way. it's cold there, a nice fleece is always welcome up there and an umbrella, rains all the time.
