The University provides telephone outlets and local service in each room. Residents must provide their own telephones and cords. Each residence hall also has a television lounge, but students may have their own TV in each room. Basic cable service is provided through Suddenlink Communications. Any additional cable service must be provided by residents, by calling 1-800-582-9577.
Students are given many opportunities to participate in their own residence halls as well as the entire residential community. RHA unifies each of the halls into one larger campus group as the governing body which provides a variety of programs and serves as the students’ voice to the University and campus community. Housing residents are automatically members of RHA. Voting membership is composed of all resident assistants, elected representatives and peer judicial board members. Each resident pays a $5 hall activity fee, per semester, that is administered and allocated by RHA. This fee will be billed as part of the overall student tuition fees and other expenses and is nonrefundable.
Laundry Rooms and Vending Machines
Campus laundry rooms are provided in each residence hall by Web Laundry Service. The University is not responsible for damaged or stolen items. Soda and candy machines are found throughout campus as well as in each residence hall. A bill changer can be found in the Seay Student Center. Refund slips for laundry and vending machines are available in each hall office and the Student Life Office.
Housekeeping and Maintenance Service
Housekeeping and Maintenance personnel work between 5:30 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. on weekdays and may not always be able to arrive at hours most convenient to students. Housekeeping’s responsibility is for normal, anticipated cleaning. Every resident has a responsibility to keep his or her room, floor and hall clean. Individuals or floors will be charged fines for excessive messes. Residents with repair needs should report any problems to their hall offices. Most non-emergency repairs will have a two or three day turnaround time. For emergency repairs (such as broken water pipes) contact maintenance or Student Life immediately.
