Residents are also encouraged to participate in the many intramural sports and outdoor recreation programs offered in the Student Union Building just across the street.

The daily operation of the hall is supervised by a full-time, live-in manager who is assisted by seven student-residents called Resident Assistants (RAs).

Resident Assistants are usually students who enjoy working with people on a regular basis. In exchange for a paid single room and meal plan, RAs help plan hall activities, keep records, and enforce hall regulations. They also get to know all the residents and learn more about themselves, while improving their leadership, time management, conflict resolution and organizational skills.

Each suite's main entry is lighted, inset from the main corridor walls, and equipped with a card-key lock (similar to many hotels). For added security, each of the hall's exterior doors is locked 24 hours a day. Campus Safety is on duty seven days a week, and security cameras are located throughout the building and grounds. As an added precaution, you may want to list any personal valuables on an insurance policy.

The residence hall has a parking lot dedicated to hall residents. A $37 annual permit is required.

You and your roommates are responsible for maintaining the condition of your suite. The residence hall provides daily custodial services for the interior and exterior common areas of the hall, but residents are expected to clean up after themselves in all common areas.

Your deposit serves as a guarantee that you are serious about moving in and as a guarantee against property damage/loss after you move in. Approximately four weeks after you check out of the hall, you will receive a refund of the deposit, less any deductions for damages, loss or fines.

All requests are handled by the Disability Support Services at (208) 769-5947.
