Damage Policy

When students move into or out of a room, the room condition inventory is checked by a member of the Residence Life staff. Occupants will be financially responsible for any damage noted beyond what is normal wear and tear. Failure to follow checkout procedures will result in a $150 fine. Damage or loss in common areas, such as hallways, stairwells, lobbies and study areas is the responsibility of all students. You are expected to care for such areas and to report any person responsible for the damage. When damage occurs to a common area, students residing in the hall may be billed as a group if no individual(s) has/have been identified as responsible for the damage.
