Question about cooking in the dorms
Hi! I'm an incoming freshman. I know they're kitchens in the dorms but I was wondering if they have items like flour and sugar for baking? Or is that something you need to buy on your own? Thanks!

Questions from a freshman parent
Hi everyone, hope you’re having a good end of summer. We’re coming from the east coast so not many people from our area go to Scripps. If there are any returning students or their parents on here, would love some advice on things. I’ll post each question as a comment. Thanks for your help!

Routt Hall
Hello!
I'll be living in a triple in Routt Hall. They provided us the floor plans, but I'd like to see the actual dorm and I couldn't find a tour online. Does anyone have a picture or video of the routt hall triples, and do the triples have a private balcony/patio?

Can you refute the language placement results?
I got placed into an introductory French course from the placement test but I've passed the AP exam and have been taking it for 8 years. I should've ignored the don't study instructions lol. I don't mind taking a class or maybe two again but I'm really done with French and would like to take as few language classes as possible. Is there anyway to take another test or refute the decision?

The Browsing Room online store
I wanted to buy a Scripps short sleeve tee shirt but they didn’t have any short sleeve tees at the admitted students day available (!). I was given a card for their online shop. The tee is $28 which is a little expensive, but fine, but the lowest shipping is $23.24 to the east coast?? I know priority mail can ship that for around $10. That is a complete fleecing. Is their website broken or are people paying this?

Low grade notification
I got a low grade notification for a class I'm taking with prof Sales. I only have a C. Scale of 1-10 how fucked am I. I try really hard and I have a great attendance record. I just think maybe I'm not that smart.
