Holidays

Before You Leave Holidays
All residence halls except Brooke, Lund and Peck Halls are closed during school break periods (Thanksgiving, Winter Holidays, and Spring Break) and residents are not allowed to stay in their rooms while the halls are closed.

You do not have to move your belongings out of your room for Thanksgiving, Winter Holiday, or Spring break, but you may not leave personal belongings in your room over summer break.

Before you leave for a holiday, be sure you follow the guidelines listed here. Your room will be checked after you leave for compliance. Failure to comply will result in a minimum $25 penalty per violation.

Winter Holiday break - unplug everything
Spring break and Thanksgiving - unplug everything except answering machines, aquariums, and refrigerators
