Buy a down comforter. Or a down vest. You should be able to get a decent one for $50. I’m cold from October to April. I’ve found anything made with down always warms me up.
Woah! Physics class, not heat class. I should go to bed…
Collect some old computers from somewhere and set up a folding cluster. It’ll warm up your room and cure cancer at the same time.
Well, in my curriculum this stuff was covered in ME 205: Thermodynamics (Mechinical Engineering) so calling it heat class is not so far off, it’s certainly not common to many Physics classes AFAIK.
Seconded. That’s gotten me through many a chilly night.* There’s nothing like sliding into a warm bed to put a smile on your face. I’ve also used the hair dryer method, when I was a kid, until it overheated one time and my father wasn’t too happy when he found out what I was using it for.
*and yes, I live in Florida, but I just can’t part with it!
I guess I was closer than I thought, but I covered this in my extremely basic, calculus-free, watered-down intro Physics class last semester. Or, as one of my science major friends says, “Physics for Non-Believers”. Anyway, it was covered.
I say, bring in the space heater, and tell them that until they fix the dorm heater, they can go fuck themselves.
