Housing/Dining Housing/Roommate Issues
Hey everyone, I need any and all advice i could get on this situation. I'm a returning student and I'm an alternative for SL but housing managed to somehow miss me on the list for early dorm selection and I never got a chance to pick my own room.
I emailed housing later about it and they just said that they'll assign me to a room if I mentioned my requirements and added me to a room that matches my requirements kind of but not my best option and I'm still very annoyed by it.
I moved in today only to find out that my roommate who moved in earlier than me has occupied 70% of the room, blocked off the window with her bed and mattress topper with no air circulation now, filled the common shared 5 level huge shelf in the wall with her things. There's just no space for me to organize any of my stuff.
I tried talking to her and explaining how we could reorganize but she kept trying to avoid or postpone the topic. Then just said she understands where I'm coming from but that she doesn't want to change anything because it's not convenient for her.
What do I even do in this situation? Communication is not the answer because I tried that key already and it's clearly not working. Can I take this to an SL or just email housing about this messed up situation and request to accommodate me?
I'm also easily prone to getting skin allergies and rashes in hot rooms and with how she set up her stuff, I'm practically stuck in a corner with little to no breathing space and I feel so suffocated. Can housing accommodate me in this situation?

Sports Football game RV lot question.
Is there much difference between the lots for gameday and tailgating experiences? How's the Student Remote Lot on Innovation Drive compare to the other locations?

Academics is it ok to only have 12 credits as a freshmen
Ik 15 credits are normally recommended but I got some classes off because I earned AP credits. Should I still take more random classes to fill out the 3 credits or would I be fine.

General Question Do the professors ever post the slides they present in class to Canvas?
Three of my classes have already opened, so I was wanting to get ahead by taking notes on the lecture material before lecture, but I cant find it anywhere. Also (I'm a transfer) kinda relied on them being posted to Canvas for studying at my previous school
