When should you shower in a dorm?

You may want to shower super early in the morning or later at night. Also, if you have a break between some of your classes, you may want to go to the earlier courses without showering, then head to your dorm to take a quick shower (although that may mean you go through clothes more.)

If you're a fan of long, hot showers, wait until off-peak times.
