177 Feeling at Home at School
Julia Parker
The purpose of my final project is to help students who are nervous about transitioning to
college because they will miss home. Personally, I struggled a lot with this and I found the best
way to help was to make my dorm feel like home. It was hard to do this at first because I didn’t
know what I’d miss about my room and house, but I found some key things that helped me
overcome this feeling. I hope I can share my findings with others and make them be able to make
their dorm their home from move-in day.
