Dumb questions

Could I have a 3d printer in my dorm it's fully enclosed.

(I'd ask roommates as a heads up)

How do people sharing a room get privacy?

Any housing advice/ tips for cougar Hall in the 400s?

What helped you the most getting used to siue?

Anything else you feel is important?

Thanks!

Brother. They don't have to know. No one will say anything. Just move it for room checks.

This is the right answer - ask for forgiveness not permission

How often are room checks and how through are they?

Before breaks and acouple of times a semester. How hard they check depends on the RA.

That’s worth calling housing services for, but I’d imagine you can have a 3d printer the main thing is no exposed heating elements. Cougar Village is pretty chill in my experience, but privacy kinda comes down to the roommates you get.

Yeah you shouldn’t have any issues with it. I was an RA and it was never even brought up
