Buying ice for a week long trip is OK. Buying ice for a 6 month trip will get old (and expensive) real quick. So, here's another idea. Check out the wattage on the dorm fridge, then buy an inverter that plugs into your cigarette lighter.
i'd love to know how much ice is. here in Thailand a small bag (about 1gallon i'd guess) from 7/11 is about $0.15 so it would be the cheapest option, but i have no idea in America
inverters are pretty inefficient and since i hope to be parked most of the time, not running the engine, a battery system would be better
those little 12v 48W 7 liter car coolers would probably work ok
