  • ALL residents will swipe themselves in to their own residence hall.
  • Resident students visiting another residence hall will leave their ID with the RSR and be signed in when entering another residence hall.
  • If the visiting student cannot be identified as a resident student, he/she will be treated as a guest (see below).

GUESTS (any one who does not live on campus)

  • Guests of resident students will leave valid picture ID and be signed in by the RSR.
  • All guests must be announced to the resident host before permitting them to enter the residence hall.
