About DormWise

DormWise, a 100% free website and e-mail newsletter, is full of content that caters to the busy college student. From tips on how to organize your dorm room to maximize space and light to fully planned parties you can recreate with your friends, DormWise articles offer simple, effective responses to typical college dilemmas and suggestions for a more creative and active social life on campus.

The website and newsletter provide real life advice for college students related to dorm living and features articles related to interior decorating, cheap and effective party planning, easy food and drink recipes and miscellaneous college-related issues such as health, packing lists and travel options.

DormWise was founded in early 2007 by Meaghan Fitzgerald, a disgruntled college student looking for a way to improve the standards of college living for herself and her peers.
