Prepare to Leave for Winter Break
· Clean your room
· Take out all trash, recycling, and compost
· Close and lock ALL windows and put your blinds down
· Turn your heaters down to low so we do not waste energy

· Remove any valuable items and all the items you will need during the break! You will NOT be able to access your room during the break!!!
· If there is a vacancy in your room/apartment, be sure to move your items to only your room/side so that the room is left clean and ready for a new resident to move in!
Halls close for Winter Break
o Unless you have been approved to stay for Winter Break by the Housing & Residence Life central office, you are unable to stay after Saturday, December 13th at 12noon. Your card access to the buildings will be shut off on this day and will remain off for the remainder of the break.
o If for some reason you failed to apply to stay over break on time, you can still apply online through the MyHousing Portal on the Housing & Residence Life website.
