IMPORTANT FLOOR DESIGNATIONS
Emerson Quieter Floor: The third floor of Emerson Hall has been designated a quieter floor. Please do not sign up for the third floor if you do not wish to live on a quieter floor.
Merriman and Park Halls: Upper classmen who wish to remain in Park and Merriman Halls next semester may request to do so. Because these buildings or designated for freshmen, upperclassmen may be moved to Emerson over the summer if space is needed. The first floors of Merriman Hall and Park Hall are transition floors. The gender of students staying on this floor may change depending on the number of male and female students who attend in the fall. Individuals signing up for these floors will be moved in to a double room if the floor is converted to the other gender. These floors may also be closed if the number of residents does not warrant it being utilized.
Skyway Suites: Four individuals will live in each suite
Single Rooms:
Individuals wishing to sign up for a single room must provide a written medical excuse prepared by a medical professional
Triple Rooms:
Students wishing to reside in triples will need to bring their two future roommates with them when they sign up

The meal plan is required for all resident students except for those living at Skyway or the Northern Road Family Houses. Our dinning service is capable of meeting the dietary needs of most medically documented special diets. Students with special dietary needs must provide a doctor/dietitian approved detailed menu to the Director of Dining Services at the beginning of the fall term.

In the rare occasion that a special dietary need cannot be met, the meal weaver will be granted.
