Residence halls usually are closed by 7 p.m. and dining services by 2 p.m. on the last day of classes before any recess. Residents of specified hall and apartment complexes may request permission to remain in their residence during scheduled breaks by requesting such accomodations with the Residence Life Office. Each resident must arrange for accommodations during the residence hall closings. No student may remain in facilities when residence halls are closed. Permission to re-enter closed facilities will be granted only in rare cases.
Services resume normally on the day before classes begin.
Services terminate on the last day of final examinations each semester. An official University calendar is available to each resident for information. Claim Services Students must claim their housing assignments and identification cards for food service before 11 a.m. on the second scheduled day of classes each semester, or within 72 hours of receipt of assignment if the assignment is made after the first class day each semester. If any emergency prevents a student from appearing to claim services, immediate written notice must be given to the University. Failure to notify the Residence Life Office of delayed arrival will result in the space being offered to another student.
