On Campus Packing List

We do not provide a specific list of exactly what clothes to bring to campus but bearing the following in mind should help:

1.  Typically, students bring more than they need. You will have very limited storage space here. Your backpack (if you own one) and one large duffel should easily hold all your belongings! 
2. We spend a lot of time during the Summer Term living out of our backpacks. We are able to carry everything we need for over a week at a time. As a result, when we return to campus, a few additional items feel like real luxuries. So in the spirit of “simple in means, rich in ends,” please limit the quantity of stuff you bring with you. 
3. The emphasis at our school is on comfortable, practical, appropriate clothing that demonstrates respect for the various learning environments. All clothes should be clean, neat, and in good repair. 
4. The average temperature range in Leadville during the summer is from about 35˚ F at night to 70˚ F during the day. Leadville’s record high is 85˚ F. 
5. You will have a chance to do laundry once each week that we are on campus, so you should probably bring about 7-10 days’ worth of underwear, but 7 days of regular clothes is plenty since you can wear a pair of pants a couple of days without washing. 
6. Please put your name on your belongings, as everyone will be bringing similar equipment.
