Residence Hall Lodging
Rooms in the residence halls
typically include a twin-size bed (usually bunked), desk, chair, and dresser. Most
rooms are double occupancy and have shared hall restrooms. A few of the rooms
are suite-style, where two bedrooms share a bathroom. Remember since students
use these rooms, they remove all of their personal belongings when they depart.
As such, there are no kitchen utensils, television, or other personal amenities
or electronics provided in rooms. Telephones are provided in each room (when
requested by your group planner). Local calls are at no charge, while long
distance calls require calling or credit cards. Voicemail is not provided
unless the group planner has made arrangements for this service. Linens and
amenities are provided. You will receive: sheets, pillowcase, blanket, pillow
with slipcover, towels, washcloths, and an amenity packet.
Housekeeping
Housekeepers are not permitted to enter occupied rooms or apartments.
Guests are requested to make their own beds and dispose of trash as needed in
the central receptacles provided on each floor or the dumpster located next to
the residence hall. Housekeeping will be provided in the common areas (hall
baths and common lounges) only.

All campus visitors must display a guest parking permit. Please obtain
a pass through your group planner prior to arrival on campus. Parking permits
