We’re waiting to hear from our kid’s uni when to go pick up his dorm contents. Son also works for the uni IT dept and was considered “non-essential”. He’s home...and transferring in the Fall.

He got the most crucial items out. So, I guess, what would be left is no big deal. Bedding, towels, a few clothes, etc.
