Townhouse Guidelines 2024-25

11 FIRE ALARMS, FIRE EQUIPMENT, AND EMERGENCY EVACUATIONS The activation of any fire alert device (e.g., horn and strobe lights) in any townhouse or building is the signal for controlled, yet rapid, evacuation of the building. Failure to evacuate a townhouse or building within three minutes during an alarm or drill will result in a $15 fine. Refusal to leave after being directed to do so will result in an additional $30 fine. ƒ Fire Alarms — Falsely setting off an alarm or falsely reporting a fire is a violation of state law. In addition, it endangers students and members of the community. Violations will result in a $200 fine by the University, discipline, and possible criminal prosecution. ƒ Fire Equipment — Intentional tampering with fire hoses, smoke detectors, extinguishers, sprinklers or pipes, and other protection equipment is against state law and will result in serious discipline, a $100 fine, and restitution. Unintentional damage to fire equipment that results from horseplay will result in a $50 fine and restitution. ALCOHOL The University’s prohibition against the possession or use of any alcoholic beverages applies to the townhouses and residents of the townhouses. CHAPEL The chapel attendance requirement for students who live in the townhouses is the same as for all students who live on campus. RESIDENT ASSISTANTS There will be one male and one female Resident Assistant (RA) in the townhouses. These Residence Life student-staff members will facilitate community within the townhouses, connect townhouse residents with services on campus, assist with the well-being of those living in the townhouses, and encourage compliance with University guidelines and general upkeep of the townhouses.
