Ask Scotty

Dear Scotty,

I just really want to know how people in my dorm REFUSE to swap our their laundry in a timely manner?

Dear Funky and Frustrated,

No matter what dorm you live in, this is always an issue in a college dorm, unless you are “lucky” enough to live close to home and take the laundry there. I would say give it 30 minutes. I know this really isn’t too feasible if you’re strapped for time, but sometimes people just forget. But after its been a half hour--truly--pull it out and put your stuff in. There is some leeway, but if it’s a continual issue, I’d send out an all hall email to call ‘em out. Good luck!
