Today, I want to focus on all the things that I wish I knew or had when I first came to Embry Riddle. So, here is a general wish of all the stuff that students who are headed out to college for the first time, commonly forget to bring with them:

A rug: It livens up your space and makes it more homey

Batteries: these will always come in handy

A lock box of some kind: This is a good place to store letters and documents

A filing box: to store old notes

A cup or mug to hold pencils in

A desk organizer of some kind

Decorations from your room at home

A white board, hole puncher, and a stappler

A scanner for documents is really helpful too

That is just scratching the surface so please feel free to comment with thoughts, suggestions, and questions! Have a great rest of the summer!
