AIKEN -- One of the most stressful weeks next to final exams in college is the first week when students move into their new dorms.

At USC Aiken, both continuing and freshman students packed their essentials for the new school year and moved into their dorms.

Some of the issues many students had with moving in were bringing too many items, the hassles of moving their belongings to their new rooms and getting accustomed to the environment.

Both resident assistants and students moving into their dorms gave helpful advice on the proper items to bring into the dorms and respecting the space of fellow roommates.

With the first day of college right around the corner, the students at USCA look forward to a successful school year.
