7 UNIVERSITY-OWNED FURNITURE Each townhouse is equipped with furniture designed to meet the basic needs of living. Each bedroom includes beds, mattresses, desks, desk chairs, chest of drawers, and a closet. The living room is furnished with a couch, two chairs, and four stools at the kitchen counter. University-owned furniture and equipment must be used as the manufacturer intended and cannot be removed from the townhouse. Furniture other than that which is bolted down may be arranged to suit your personal taste. Other than bunk beds, furniture may not be stacked. Therefore, lofts or other structures may not be constructed. Bed risers are permitted if they fit as the manufacturer intended. For safety and efficiency of the heating units, furniture must be positioned at least 5 inches away from the heaters. STUDENT-OWNED FURNITURE Students are permitted to bring personal furniture to the townhouse as space allows. For health and safety concerns, student furniture should be new or from the student’s home and should have the appropriate California code tag. Any furniture that is not new or from the student’s home should be inspected by the University Maintenance staff to ensure it meets code and is free of bedbugs. TVs are permitted but cannot be wall-mounted. COMMON SPACE Each townhouse has a kitchen, bathrooms, washer and dryer, and living room that are shared with other students. Residents are responsible to maintain and care appropriately for these spaces, which includes regular trash disposal. ROOM DECORATIONS While expressions of individuality are encouraged in room decorations, the University has established some guidelines relative to safety, care of property, privacy, and testimony. Decorations in your townhouse and bedroom should leave no doubt that you are a Christian student at a Christ-centered institution. This means that all decorations should be consistent with your commitment to the Cedarville Covenant. Therefore, room decorations should not include obscene or suggestive materials or contain irreverent or sacrilegious slogans. Additional room decoration guidelines include: Any wall hangings or curtains must be affixed using Command strips. Students are responsible for any damage to the walls. No more than 25 percent of any wall can be covered with combustible materials (e.g., paper, cloth, or plastic). Walls may not be painted. Only one string of lights can be used as a room decoration. Window blinds may not be removed or altered in any way. Window glass, screens, or frames should have nothing glued, taped, or attached to them (inside or outside). Metal hangers should not be placed over doors, hinges, or frames. Ceiling tiles are not to be removed or altered. Nothing should be hung from the ceiling.
