Freshman room and roommate assignments are made in early June and mailed at that time. If you wish to request a roommate, the Residence Life Staff will honor that preference if both individuals mutually request one another. At the beginning of each year, roommates discuss expectations of the room and how they are going to live together. If problems arise Resident Assistants are available to help out. It is important to be honest with your roommate right away about what you like and dislike.
Problems often escalate because roommates stop talking to each other.
If all other possibilities and if space is available, after the initial 4 weeks of the semester students may make room changes. Each underclassmen hall has a TV lounge, a kitchenette that includes a stove, refrigerator and microwave, an ice machine and floor study lounges. The college will use all reasonable efforts to protect your property, but the college is not liable for the loss, theft of, or damage to any property belonging to students. The college does NOT insure students and their property, and assumes no responsibility for personal injury. We suggest investigating your parents homeowners or renters insurance to see what type of coverage you may have in a residence hall.
