Replies PrintingFreak Posted at 5:49 pm on Oct. 14, 2008 your best bet would be to try to talk to your roomate about it. because he may not realize that he infact smells like shit, if nothing comes of it after a week then inform your R.A. about his personal hygiene issues, because once someone in the housing staff  knows ( RA including) it is easier to go about moving out, Vincennes University (the college i was an RA at) had a policy that if you know who's room you wanted to move into and they had an open space (like a friend) you could move mid-semester with a 10 dollar charge (they said it was for processing or some BS like that) and then the residents were free to switch. hope this helps good luck hang in there. ~ Patrick ElephantStone Posted at 1:43 pm on Oct. 13, 2008 try a neat freak. Thats even more pissy. PVHSco08 Posted at 1:41 pm on Oct. 13, 2008 just tell your RA and tell the roommate your leaving that you'd just like to move in with your "friend" and its nothing personal. my original lesbian roommate (im straight) decided she wanted to move in with another lesbian, they came up to me and just asked i gladly accepted the offer. lol but now my new roommate is worse. ha. guitarist451 Posted at 1:40 pm on Oct. 13, 2008 He's not the most desirable roommate but he doesn't complain and keeps to himself horney123 Posted at 1:39 pm on Oct. 13, 2008 we have alot fo those at ours as well. I take it no one will volenteer to swap SpM Posted at 1:38 pm on Oct. 13, 2008 He decays? So..your roommate is, in fact, dead? Hi Carie Posted at 1:38 pm on Oct. 13, 2008 go to the housing office. you might be able to move at semester. good luck moving before then though. smmayy Posted at 1:38 pm on Oct. 13, 2008 frebreeeeeeeeeeeeze (: Uptown Swag Posted at 1:38 pm on Oct. 13, 2008 Tell the bastard to get out more or try air freshners.
