text: where is the best place to find a roomate, without posting my phone # all over campus or the internet?   call your campus housing office and see if they keep a list of persons who want roommates and you can list your name/number there to advertise without posting all over campus. if your housing office doesn't do this, see if you have an office of commuter students or adult students that is for students who live off campus and chances are they will have some type of roommate list.  also, you can list an email address to respond to, although i'm not sure as many people will respond to an email as to a phone number. get a non-crazy sounding yahoo email account name just for this process and then cancel the account when you have a roommate.   hope this helps.
