BAYLOR BOUND
honest advice from honestly nice people
Ah move in day; there’s no other university that I know of that does something quite like this (if you do know of one don’t squander my happiness). But what exactly is Move2BU? You’ve seen the happy looking brochure that makes it look like everything will be smooth sailing the day you move in Well it can be- if you read the directions carefully and follow the rules. Sure, your fellow bears take a load off of you hands, carry your stuff to your 6th floor-end-of-the-hall dorm room (I’m looking at you Collins). But what happens during this time? Let me break it down for you: Before you arrive:

The driver will be getting these same instructions, but this is important to keep the flow of traffic moving as quickly as possible. You will then be directed to park in a nearby parking garage or the Ferrell Center parking. Shuttles will be driving around the perimeter of campus so if the only parking space you could find was on the other side of campus from your dorm, Baylor’s got you covered. A NOTE ABOUT VALUED POSSESSIONS: If you have something you DON’T want the volunteers to take; physically hold on to it, lay your body across it, and don’t let go. Why take these drastic measures? All boxes look the same after a while, and the volunteers are going at a quick pace to keep the line moving. So they might not pay close attention to a box marked do not take. When you get to your room:
Welp, that’s all I got for ya folks. Now double and triple check that college essentials 101 list and get ready for the best move in experience you’ll ever have! Disclaimer: Remember kids, you have to move yourself out. So be kind to your future self and don’t pack half a house.
