Residence Life Policies

Opening and Closing/Check-In and Check-Out of Residence Halls

Opening and closing times for residence halls and College-owned houses are specified in the Official Academic Calendar. These times have been chosen to best suit the needs of the College community. Check-out time is 5 p.m. of the day following the last final exam of each semester. Teams or organizations which need special arrangements during breaks must request authorization from the Office of Residence Life. Other students who desire to arrive early or stay late must request permission from the Office of Residence Life. The charge is $15 per day for those who have received permission. Unauthorized students will be fined $50, assessed a per-day charge, and asked to leave College housing.

When checking in and checking out of a room, students are required to review and sign a “Room Inventory Form” which is used to record the condition of the room prior to and at the end of occupancy. Failure to sign in or out constitutes a waiver of the right to appeal any assessed costs. In the event that it is impossible to distinguish which roommate is responsible for damages, all roommates will be charged an equal share of the costs.

Painting of Individual Rooms and Common Areas

Students may paint individual rooms or common areas with authorization by the Director of Residence Life and the Director of the Facilities. Copies of the Painting Policy and Guidelines may be obtained from the Office of Residence Life.
