It’s the mantra of experienced travelers worldwide: pack lighter, pack lighter, pack lighter. Here’s a quickie checklist for any trip your college experience may throw your way.
• Bathing suit and flip-flops
• Base tan (a couple of fake-bake
sessions should do)
• Credit card (parents’ card, if possible)
• Hotel reservations (even if 10 per
room)
• Inhibitions (so you won’t end up on a "Gone Wild” video)
• Tent
• Sleeping bags
• Cooking gear (for the fish you catch)
• Granola bars (in case you don’t catch any fish)
• Bear repellant
Rent camping gear from Rec Services
• Gas money
• Map
• Camera (in case you drive past the world's largest ball of twine)
• Girls: puppy dog eyes (to charm your way out of a speeding ticket)
• Guys: stamp (to mail in the check for your speeding ticket)

• Electrical adaptor
• ATM card
• Guidebook for the places you’ll visit
