[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 725072, member: 1233"] Crayola, they close the dorms to save money. This way they can turn off the heat and not pay any staff but the very barest minimum. It saves an absolute ton of money for the university. The university does not make money on dorms. As for gifts, I would maybe give small items and include a small gift card to a fast food restaurant. Does he think he is moving back home with you? Has he brought that up in email? I know kids who just showed up on their parents' doorsteps after flunking out, and were then astounded when they were not welcomed back as if they were the children who left who didn't have to contribute. Make sure that Ferb knows what you will tolerate if he comes to your house, if he is welcome there, and how long he can stay with you. [/QUOTE]
