Gotta love dorm rooms that look like cold prison cells... couldn't they at least paint it and keep the bricks from showing through?

EDIT> it may have been a closet, but i've seen many dorm room pics that look like that.

Is that even legal? I thought a bedroom had to have a window for emergency exit reasons.

That's what I was thinking. How is that even legal. What school do you go to. I wouldn't pay if that was the situation I was put in

I don't know why it wouldn't be legal. Ships don't have only window cabins. As long as there's clearly marked exits, they don't need windows.

I'm pretty sure that it's illegal for them to rent out a room as a bedroom without a window.

I'd have a little conversation with the housing department about any openings that may have appeared and ask if renting the closet to you is allowed under fire code (no way in hell it is). If they stonewall I'd mention that you're going to check with the local fire marshall just to be sure.

They would just offer me a more expensive room or a room with a roommate
I like this room

Honestly, it's kind of meh. If you won't go for Soviet propaganda posters, how about the Marines circa 1944? Old military posters from WWII would look sharp, and they'd go with the industrial design also :^)

I can't say that I blame you. I'd take a room like yours in an instant if it meant that I could live by myself.

I did sign my lease for a 3 bed room off campus apartment with a 'luxury' apartment complex around here. It only $300 more a month and I get my own bed room, living room, full kitchen, and laundry room

That's better. It stimulates the imagination a bit more imo. The modern recruiting posters make it look too...um... I don't know, I guess new, and academic(go figure, eh? :^D). I guess it strikes me as being too common, and not so special. Vintage stuff lets you disappear to a different place every so often. Old pinup girls would look good too. Not too many; maybe just an old calendar or something. Accessorize in olive drab, and that room would be pretty slick. Camo netting hung from the ceiling would rock, but might not be so popular with the chicks :^D

Edit:
grammar

Interesting, will keep in mind

You're indian, what did your parents say about you joining the Marines?

My moms not the happiest, it might be the first time iv seen my dad proud of me

I'v opted out from telling my grandparents since indian people in india have a funky look into military
