Dear Reader IV

thank you, K! you're awesome. The tips you gave were really great, and I'll be sure to remember them when school starts this fall. :) One last thing (which may sound dumb): How does laundry work at Cal? I saw laundry chutes at orientation, but are those for sheets? what about personal laundry? anyway, thanks again! Brilliant blog, by the way.


Dear Anonymous 


Laundry depends on where you're staying. In the dorms (in Unit 3 anyway- other dorms are probably set up in a similar fashion), there's a building in the center of the residential buildings where students go to eat (the dining commons), and below that is the laundry room (along with various other rooms). So the laundry room is separated from the actual dorms but is still part of the unit. It's one big room with about 20 washers and 20 dryers and is operated either by coins or your cal1 card (which you will be getting at orientation I believe). Yes, there are chutes in the dorms but that's for garbage and other disposables :). If you're going into an apartment in the fall, then there should be a laundry room within the apartment complex. 


Thank you! And  you are very welcome ;) 


See you in the fall!
