Luciana E. Milano '14
In this series, we highlight decorative student dorm rooms deserving of special mention. If you think your room is fit to be profiled, let us know!

From her fanned out stack of "Economist" magazines placed by the entrance to her neatly organized scarves hanging on the door, Milano has gone above and beyond to transform her room into a place where she can unwind. "It's just somewhere to relax, pray, or meditate. Sometimes I'll wake up in the morning and play soft music, brew my coffee, and do my morning prayers. It's a great way to start the day."
