Students’ Corner

I hope that everyone is handling their study stress well, and I wish you all luck on your finals! After finals are over, however, I know that we’ll all be packing up our dorm rooms and saying goodbye to Rochester for the next few months. While you’re packing up your room, please keep the following options in mind instead of tossing out your unwanted possessions:
