7. Love Thy Neighbor! If you're living on campus, get to know your neighbors. After all, you are going to be living next to them for a whole year. Make friends with them, they can always be a huge help, from homework to hardware and everything in between. In my dorm anytime there is a spider or something is broken, we call on our neighbors to help us out. Anytime they need something cleaned or help with homework, we make time for each other. Even if your neighbors aren't your best friends, at least make nice with them. The last thing you need is an enemy living next door to you who can be as obnoxious and distracting as they want if they want to mess with you.
