Dealing with Your Awful Roommate

By Courtney Erland, Sherell Williams & Christian Yingling of Broadside

Does your roomate eat your food, wake you up at 3 a.m. or have sex in your shower? Use these tips next time you need to deal with the roommate from hell.

1. Pull out your roommate contract. Did you not do one? Get one from Housing... now.

2. Is your roommate sexin’ it up in the shower? Talk about it, there needs to be (a) a time limit, (b) a signal and (c) some bleach on hand from some after-action cleanup.

3. When you approach your roommate, have a list of discussion topics so you don’t forget anything.

4. Remember, violence is not the answer, do not shank your “d-bag” dorm mate.
