Move-in guide: Textbooks, ID pickup, Green Move In and more

Moving in

• All students and families must arrive on campus at their scheduled time for move-in. You will be directed by Lafayette staff when and where to unload your car once you arrive at your residence hall. Check out these transportation reminders and schedules for the LCAT shuttles and LANTA buses.
• Find out where to recycle cardboard, styrofoam, and plastic bags, and discover tips for a Green Move In.
• Have you ordered your textbooks yet? 
• Forgot toothpaste or a charging cable? You’re not the only one. Shampoo, toothpaste, and toothbrushes are the three most forgotten items, and the ones purchased most during move-in weekend, according to the staff at the College Store. When you pick up your textbooks at the College Store, you’ll also find school supplies, charging cables, specific course materials such as lab manuals, and toiletries.
• The ID pickup location has moved—here’s where to find them. 
• Become an Eco Rep.
• Outfit your space by shopping for school supplies, clothes, and more at the Campus Thrift Store Aug. 25.
