Things to Note
Lost or Stolen Items
Fishburne does not claim any responsibility for lost or stolen items, high value items are brought at your own risk and should be locked in the storage compartment under the bed (students must provide their own lock).
Last-minute Shopping
If you need to do any last-minute shopping, we suggest retail/grocery stores in the Waynesboro area, Wal-Mart Supercenter or Walmart Neighborhood Grocery, Martin’s Grocery, Target, Ace Hardware, and Kroger Grocery.
Phones
Before leaving campus, please make sure you write down your son’s room phone number and extension so you may communicate him. All phones have voicemail capability. It is up to your son to set up his own voicemail message (Operations Office Personnel are available to assist). This may take a few days.
