7 Room And Unit Guidelines COMMON SPACE Each Student Communities unit has a kitchen, bathroom, washer and dryer, and living room. Residents are responsible for appropriately maintaining and caring for these spaces, which includes regular trash disposal. Occupants may have plants in pots; planting anything in the ground is strictly prohibited. STUDENT-OWNED FURNITURE Students are permitted to bring personal furniture to their Student Communities as space allows. For health and safety, student furniture should be new or from the student’s home and should have the appropriate 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. In an effort to remain bedbugfree, we strongly discourage bringing second-hand furniture that has not been inspected for bedbugs. If you are found responsible for bringing bedbugs onto campus, you may be held liable for remediation costs. TVs are permitted but cannot be mounted on the wall. UNIVERSITY-OWNED FURNITURE AND APPLIANCES Each unit (except for Cedar Park married housing) is equipped with furniture designed to meet basic living needs (see the Student Communities webpage for specific furniture provided). University-owned furniture and equipment must be used as the manufacturer intended and cannot be removed from the residence. Furniture other than that which is bolted down may be arranged to suit your personal taste. Students may not replace University-owned furniture with their own. 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 the safety and efficiency of the heating units, furniture must be positioned at least five inches away from the heaters. No alterations are allowed to any plumbing fixtures, including but not limited to the installation of water filtration systems, replacement of showerheads, or similar modifications. Students are responsible for maintaining in good working order or condition any range, refrigerator, or other appliances supplied by the University. Students are responsible for any damage to the flooring. No items (e.g., wires,
