Late Permission Residents in Alma Gatewood who are not on academic alert or probation may come in after curfew up to two times per month at any time during the week. Residents who are on alert or probation are only eligible for later permission on Friday and Saturday nights. Residents who exceed their late permission will be put on probation for 30 days and lose all late permission for that time. Students who receive negative progress reports may lose their late permission eligibility, even if they are not already on alert of probation.
After Hours Work Residents who have an off-campus job and need to work after curfew may request such permission from the Resident Director. Residents of Ferndale and Hoggatt Halls may work anytime as long as their entrance and exit of the residence halls does not negatively affect other residents or their own academic status.
Open House Residence Life Staff plan open house programs regularly that allow visitation from members of the opposite gender within the individual residence hall rooms on campus. Specific dates and hours are set and posted and those residents partici-
pating are asked to keep their doors fully open at all times. This is a great opportunity for residents to visit each other’s rooms for social activity. All lobbies are open for co-ed visitation at all times. Lobbies may be closed at certain times at the discretion of the Resident Director or Director of Residence Life.

Hall & Floor Meetings
Outside of open house hours, residents may not have a person of the opposite gender in their room at any time—including family members—without permission of the RD or RA. Failure to obtain permission may result in disciplinary action, suspension, or loss of housing privileges. Single Palmer Hall residents may have non-family guests of the opposite gender during the hours of 6 a.m. to 1 a.m. No overnight non-family guests of the opposite gender are permitted in the apartments.

Absences must be approved in advance by the Resident Director. Residents who fail to attend without granting permission from their RD may be subject to a fine.
