The residence halls are locked 24 hours a day. Student rooms have a door lock. Locks are not provided for wardrobes and drawers. Students are responsible for the cleanliness of their own rooms. The Colleges' housekeeping service cleans the hallways, the public rooms of the residence halls, and the bathrooms.
Vacuums are available to each resident upon request to the resident advisor.
The larger residence halls have coin-operated washing machines and dryers. Students who live in a residence hall without laundry facilities generally use the machines in a nearby building. There are also several laundromats in Geneva. Smoking is allowed in the residence hall rooms. However, students can express preference for non-smoking rooms.
