As Laura Everett Bowling walked through a residence hall at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, this month, she took stock of all the things that looked the same.

It was Laura Bowling’s first visit to Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, in 33 years - for her daughter’s move-in day. Laura and Sarah Bowling, 18, discovered they would share the same freshman-year room number when the school sent out assignments last month.
