Room decorating contest

Eat your heart out, HGTV! SUNY Oneonta put out a call via Instagram last week for pictures of creative freshman residence hall rooms, and students came through! After narrowing the group to six finalists, our Insta followers voted childhood education major Brie Springer's cozy Dormify-inspired room No. 1:

<< 'choose happy'

Childhood education major Kendall Reed's room was a close second:

"My inspo was definitely Target...I live in Target!"

'dream on'>>

Over the summer, roommates Brittany Champagne and Giulia D’Angelo decided on color schemes, brainstormed decoration ideas and coordinated who was bringing what for their room:

“We’ve been talking about it every day for months!” says Giulia, a childhood education major.

<<'good vibes'

Gabby Cecere, a psychology major, says she wanted her room to be "bright and have a home-y kind of feel... Pinterest definitely helped!"

'she believed she could, so she did'

"I just wanted something clean and simple that wouldn't make the room feel too cluttered ... I really wanted some cute inspirational messages to help me along my journey and pictures to remind me of home!" - Kayla Capucilli, childhood education major
