How tight is the security at college dorms for incoming students?


Asked by Mateo
At the college I'm going to next week, pets are prohibited in the dorms, but I'm determined to smuggle in my pet frog by any means necessary. It just doesnt seem right to leave the little bugger behind. So my question is, how tight is the security when incoming students check into their dorms for the first time? I could put my guy's small aquarium in a cardboard box and sneak him in that way. But is all my stuff likely to get searched at the lobby for any contraband amphibians, or do you pretty much just take your stuff right to your dorm room with no hassle? It's my first time going to college and I'm curious to know how it works on day 1.

If you keep it in an aquarium you might be able to get away with it. It also depends on your RA. Someone asked my RA about having a lizard they keep in an aquarium and she said she didn't care. If you manage to get it in and your not supposed to have it stay away from anything that would get your room searched.
