A Speaker
Klipsch
Everbody loves music, right? Who wouldn't love to have a speaker in their apartment and be able to enjoy some of your favorite songs with your friends. Music makes any type of gathering more fun, and a good speaker can be used for any type of hangout.
LED Strip Lights

Cool lighting can set the mood for anything. It makes your place look way cooler, and I feel like it is a very common college decoration. People like to have cool lighting, and it can set any type of mood for any type of hangout setting.
Extra Chairs
Dorm Co
If you are going to have friends over, especially in a time of social distancing, you are going to want to have places for people to sit. With new social distancing guidelines, it probably would be best to make sure you have enough space for people to come over, and not be siting on top of each other. So I would definitely reccomend getting a few extra comfy chairs for your living area.
Party Games
Amazon
If you are over 21, and legal to drink, it would be a good idea to purchase some party games to play when you have friends over to either pregame or just hang out and drink. Drinking games definitely could make things a lot more fun, and with a lot of social activity being banned in fall, they could come in handy to keep you and your friends entertained this semester.
A TV
Digital Trends
This one is probably the most obvious, but if you are going to be at your apartment a lot more this semester compared to a typical semester, you will need one. It could be fun to set up shows to watch weekly with your friends, and have people over for them. Also, if we do get a football season, and can't attend the games, you definitely will want to have something to watch the game on and support our team from afar with friends.
