If its Goodnow, an understanding that the unused steam pipes in the ceiling run between all the rooms, and knowledge of how to use a co-ax splitter, if they want to win at stealing cable.

shower caddy to hold his toothpaste and brush and shower stuff

i can't think of much i would consider a necessity. maybe spring for some sound isolating headphones? even then, just go to the library to study if the dorm is too loud.

a white board is handy. small microwave for the room?

Planned on the fridge and micro. As to the TV & game system, the couple times we've toured it seemed that more rooms were without than with.
