Start with a brief introduction this goes a long way in knowing yourselves. introduce yourself by telling him/her your name, course of study, hobbies, State of origin etc. As roommates, you will be sharing a small space for a long time, and you will need to respect each other’s needs and preferences. Maybe you like to play music while you study or not, you like or dislike a clean environment, you need some quite time in the morning before you begin the day activities.  don’t work or react base on assumptions, don’t assume that your roommate will just figure anything out without prior knowledge. All these will save you from lots of conflict. However, if there is any conflict/misunderstanding between you and your roommate, please report to the Hall Warden or the Counsellors.

one of the most common problem that arises between roommates is invasion and trespassing. Don’t assume he/she won’t mind if you eat his/her biscuit, he/she probably will. Always ask for permission before borrowing or using anything that belongs to your roommates.
