Quiet Hours
During Quiet Hours residents are expected to keep noise levels in and around student rooms to a minimum in order to accommodate the sleep and study habits of their peers. Noise restrictions include conversations in hallways, telephone calls, and other noises, such as radios, televisions, or slamming doors. The primary, initial responsibility for the enforcement of Quiet Hours belongs to the residents. Residents disturbed by noise exceeding Quiet Hours guidelines are encouraged to approach the other student personally and politely ask the student to comply with the Quiet Hours policy. If the request is disregarded, the resident should then contact a hall staff member.
Quiet Hours are as follows:
- Sunday - Thursday: midnight –10 am
- Friday and Saturday: midnight – noon
Quiet Hours are extended during and around Finals Week each semester. In addition to the Quiet Hour policy, Courtesy Hours are in effect in every hall 24 hours a day. Students are expected to extend courtesy and respect to their neighbors at all times by keeping conversations, music, and other noise at a reasonable level. Any student approached by a peer regarding a noise complaint should demonstrate respect by attempting to lower noise levels. Consistently loud residents will be required to meet with the Community Director. Quiet Hours apply primarily to and around student rooms while main lobbies and front desk areas utilize Courtesy Hours.
