Unless you've paid to keep your room, it'll have to be cleared each holiday. If you're worried about storage over the holidays, like we were when we first came, this is the time to chillax. The single rooms have under-bed storage (you'll need padlocks), and being all international and precious, you're allowed to use College's communal storage areas (the “voids” underneath the Old Wing blocks.). The shared rooms don't have under-bed storage, so get to use the voids anyway. This special treatment comes in very handy if you, like us, have too much stuff and are too mean to donate it to charity. Just ask the lovely porters for a box.
