become familiar with the Open House Visitation hours. Open House hours may be adjusted over holiday and break periods. There is no Open House when classes are not in session.

Permission to do so must be obtained in advance from the Resident Director in writing. Students must request overnight guests using the guest registration page in the Housing Portal. Approved guests can stay up to three nights on-campus per semester total. Visitors who are under the age of 18 may not stay unless they are prospective students connected to a visit with the Admissions Office. Guests should make arrangements with Campus Public Safety for a temporary parking permit if necessary. Host will be held responsible for any guest behavior that violates our community standards, including anything that would result in fines or damages to University or private property. Guests are not permitted to have in their possession a key to the resident host’s assigned room. Campus Public Safety officers do no unlock residence hall doors for non-student guests. University officials reserve the right to require non-student guests to vacate campus property. Throwing Objects For safety purposes, no objects (including liquids) may be thrown from a residence facility or into a residence facility. Throwing objects from or into any residence facility window, roof, or balcony will result in a $100 fine and possible removal from the residence hall. Skateboards/Roller Blades/Bikes/Hoverboards Due to the potential for property damage and in the interest of safety and comfort of all University members, the use of roller blades, roller skates, bikes, scooters, and skateboards is prohibited inside campus buildings and elevators, including residence facilities and lobbies. Limited use of such is permitted on driveways, parking lots, and sidewalks (with the exception of those around the residence halls and within ten feet of a building). Use of courtyards (for example, Needham Chapel, Scott Academic Center) is prohibited. Riders shall refrain from riding on railings, benches, or otherwise damaging University property. Riders are responsible for the damages they cause to any persons or University property. Riders should use caution, maintain a safe speed and distance from buildings and people, and are encouraged to wear head and body protection when riding on campus. The University is not responsible for injuries suffered while riding roller blades, roller skates, bikes, scooters, or skateboards on campus. Failure to abide by these policies may result in disciplinary action. Hoverboards and similar electronic self-balancing devices are banned on campus. See Hoverboard Policy under General Student Policies and Services. Quiet Hours There are some responsibilities which students living in an academic community have to each other. The close proximity of living quarters requires that certain hours be regarded as quiet hours. These hours are 11:00 PM to 11:00 AM daily. Students should refrain from playing loud music, playing musical instruments, or engaging in loud behavior during quiet hours. In addition to these quiet hours, it should be understood that the unique needs of each facility require the mutual respect of every student's privilege to a comfortable residence area. Drums and amplified musical instruments should not be played at any time in the residence facilities.
