Damage to Rooms/Public Areas

Residence Life staff will inspect residences prior to, during, and prior to termination of occupancy. Students will be assessed for any damage, missing items, or cleaning costs to individual rooms and/or common areas (e.g., floor lounges, hallways, bathrooms, or any other common areas) as determined by the RD. Common spaces are considered to be the responsibility of the residents of that building, unit, or floor. If individuals responsible for damage cannot be identified, the residents of the building, unit, or floor will become collectively responsible for the cost of repair or replacement. In situations where the damages are extreme, repetitive or the unit is severely disruptive, the students may be subjected to the disciplinary process which may result in sanctions, including housing relocation to other residence halls.
