Q: How many students are assigned to a room?
A: Generally there are two students
assigned to a room. All rooms in our traditional residence halls (outside
of the apartments) are connected to another bedroom by a shared bathroom.
Our halls do not have large hall bathrooms, and each suite (the two bedrooms
and bath) are responsible for maintaining the cleanliness of the suite
areas. Some rooms are designated as triple rooms because of the larger
size and are a popular choice of our upper-class residents. If demand
for housing is high, we will assign students to “overflow areas” on
a temporary basis.
Q: How are the rooms furnished?
A: The rooms are set up with a bed, desk, chair, draw space and a closet. We provide the curtains for all windows. Rooms are not carpeted. Area rugs are allowed.
Q: How many students assigned to each room?
A: Generally there are two students to a room. There are some permanent triple rooms that are very popular with our upper-class students. Singles are awarded on a limited basis to students who demonstrate a medical need for one. When needed, some rooms are assigned three students to accommodate overflow.
Q: Are the rooms furnished and carpeted?
A: Each residence hall room is furnished with a bed, wardrobe (including drawers), desk, chair, and curtains. The rooms are not carpeted. Students often bring small are rugs. All beds are extra long and require the larger size linens.
Q: What about laundry rooms?
A: All residence halls have laundry facilities and the cost is free to residents.
Q: Can I ask to be changed out of my room if things are not working out with my roommate?
A: Residence Life encourages all students to seek assistance from their Resident Assistant or Resident Director regarding conflicts or issues in the room. If mediation does not solve the issues, the Resident Director may look to change a student’s location if availability exists. In addition, Residence Life allows an Open Room Change Period at the end of the fall semester to establish new assignments for the spring semester.
