Packing for College...the Desk

Hey guys welcome back to our blog. Today I will be helping you pack stuff for your desk. Now, not everybody uses their desks, but this will help you figure out what you should bring to college. Here at William Woods we have a 3-drew desk with a sliding drew at the top. If you are planning on going to William Woods in the Fall or in the Spring I included a photo of my freshman dorm to kind of give you an idea of what they look like.

This is probably not everything you will want to get for your desk and there maybe things I even forgot to put on there. As I had said not everybody uses their desks, I always used my desk to paint on and my bed to study and do all my work, everybody is different so use your desk for anything you want to, within reason of course. School will be starting up very soon, I hope you all have enjoyed your summer! Comment below your favorite way of organizing your desk if you’re already in college or comment with questions. We are always happy to answer your questions!
