Living with a roommate or housemates may be challenging. A key to living with others is compromise and acceptance. If, for some extreme reason room or building changes are necessary, the student(s) involved should contact their Resident Assistant. Students will be referred to the Director Residence Services who must approve the room change. Room and building changes will be assessed a $50.00 administrative fee per student. Room and building changes will not occur until the first business day in October. Residence reserves the right to change room or building assignments at any time during the year.
