In the interest of security, staffing, and energy conservation residence hall facilities (except THV, OCH, and Rock Row) will close during winter and spring breaks. Information regarding these closings will be sent to all residents prior to the beginning of each break period. Students must exit and return to the residence halls as outlined in the calendar above. The only exception to staying in a residence hall is for academic/university related purposes. Academic purpose is defined as students who are doing internships, service trips, athletics, or an activity for an academic program. The department requiring a resident to stay must provide a list of those students needing to be on campus. This will be verified by the Residence Life Office. Students who meet these requirements must register with the Residence Life Office in Massman 3. 

Students who do not meet the academic purpose requirement must leave the residence halls on time. A student will receive a fine and/or a daily rate charge if they choose not to leave. Students flying home for breaks must plan their flights in accordance to the residence hall closings. Students who have a flight delay or a change in their flight must check in with the Residence Life Office. If there is a complication with a flight and you have been approved to remain or arrive early in the hall until the flight, a daily rate charge will be assessed to your student account. The daily rate charge varies per building and room payments do not cover the daily rate charge. We will not extend your stay in a residence hall to meet vacation plans or employment. 

Residence Halls remain open for Fall Break, Thanksgiving Break and Easter Break. For security purposes, students remaining on campus during these breaks must register with the Residence Life Office in Massman 3, by 4:30 pm on the Tuesday prior to the break. Generally there is limited dining service during all breaks. Residents will be notified of dining times and available locations.  Meal plan usage is limited during break periods. 

THV, OCH, and Rock Row communities do not close for academic breaks. For security purposes THV,OCH and Rock Row residents staying over breaks (Fall Break, Thanksgiving Break, Winter Break and Spring Break) must register with the Office of Residence Life. Please contact the Office of Residence Life at (816) 501-4663 with questions.

Health and safety inspections will be done at various times. Staff will post signs 24 hours prior to starting inspections. For more information about health and safety inspections please contact the Office of Residence Life.
