My old roommate had cerebral palsy, which was fine except she was insanely messy, left her trash and food out everywhere to rot and always slept

I would try to communicate it to the housing office that he seems to need more help and space for his disability, and that it's causing problems.

Tell the dorm head or get a cheap apartment better than that

Go to your dorm head and talk to the ADA office on campus. Dorm head for welfare checks, and ADA can work on providing accommodations for him

It’s one thing to be accommodating but not if you have to compromise your own health for it

It’s easy to say, “Talk to him like any other person” now, but you don’t know his temperament or if he’s prone to outburst yet. I would try move tbh.

what kind of school doesn’t allow you to switch rooms even if it’s genuinely impacting your education?

I would talk to whoever is in charge of room assignments.. most school have a 20% drop out rare for freshman. Your RM needs to be in a single.

Some schools offer disability housing, basicly like single rooms. Maybe he could have one of those? He might be more comfortable there
