Cooking appliances such as toasters, toaster ovens and frying pans cannot be used in student rooms. These UL approved items must be used only in the kitchenette areas. Hot plates are not permitted on campus. Only two refrigerators are allowed in each room. Use of extension cords should be kept to a minimum and be of the heavy duty type.
All electrical cords are to be maintained in good condition.
Carpets with a foam or rubber backing are extremely dangerous because of the heavy smoke and toxic fumes which they produce upon combustion. Therefore, they are prohibited. Lighted candles, flame lights and fireworks of any type are not permitted in student rooms. Rooms badly congested with additional furniture or allowed to degenerate to an extremely untidy condition are fire hazards. In these cases, students will be required to remedy the situation.
