Housing & Residential Education Student Affairs

• Cleaning supplies, including all-purpose cleaners and vacuums, are available at all of our front desks for check-out.
• Dollies and red carts are available to check out for one-hour periods but supplies are limited.

It is the student’s responsibility to leave their rooms clean of all items when they leave. Everything must be removed. Student must take all unwanted clothing, bedding, etc., to Big Brothers and Big Sisters at the Peterson Heritage Center.

Food items will need to be thrown away (with one exception -  canned foods should be given to University Food Pantry). All other items such as bathroom and kitchen items (all items), the student should also throw away.

Items such as driver’s license, passport, keys, birth certificates that are accidentally left will be brought to Housing & Residential Education office, by HRE staff, and attempts will be made to contact the student.

Any items such as electronics, sports equipment, small furniture (not broke) that are left in the room will be kept at HRE for 30 days. After the 30 day wait period, these items will be removed to University Surplus and Salvage as is the University policy. If you are looking for any of these items, after 30 days, you will need to go to Surplus and Salvage to see if your item is still there.

Not sure what to do with that sweater you never wear or the full-length mirror that won't fit in your carry-on bag? Trying to downsize before moving out?

Donate your gently used clothes, linens, unopened pantry food and other dorm items to  the red What Goes Around Comes Around Carts! Not only will you lighten your packing, keep high quality items out of the trash, but we'll also make these available to students for FREE next fall!
