Residence Life Policies
Charges for Damage and/or Replacement
Damage and cleaning charges are to be assessed by
the Office of Residence Life on the recommendation of Area Directors,
Assistant Directors and/or Maintenance, and with the authorization
of the Associate Dean. Charges are made in accordance
with general guide-lines established by Maintenance. In addition,
all charges and fines are also subject to an additional charge
for labor assessed for all Earlham staff who contribute time and
energy
to rectify a situation or problem. A
listing of damage and replacement costs can be obtained from
the Office of Residence Life.
Earlham encourages shared responsibility for community
problems. Fines for problems or situations that either cannot be
applied
to an individual resident or that are clearly the result of
an indeterminate
group of residents will be shared by the community. Fines will
be divided among all the students in a given area or building
as appropriate.
All Common Billing will be publicly posted and totaled at the end
of each semester. The Area Director implements this policy in consultation
with residents and the Office of Residence Life.
The College Judicial Council and the Student Judicial
Council also have the authority to assess monetary fines. In
addition, students are subject to automatic fines as listed in
the chart on the following page and may be subject to additional
judicial action.
