25. What are the visitation hours?

Visitation for Coed Halls
Coed residence halls will have 24 hour visitation starting on the opening day of the academic year. 24 hour visitation is for visitation purposes only. The cohabitation policy, escort policy, and overnight guest policy still apply to residence halls with 24 hour visitation.

Visitation Hours for Single Gender Halls
Beginning with fall semester opening week in single gender halls the maximum hours during which a residence hall room or public area is open to members of the opposite gender are 9am until 2am.

A visitation option vote will be conducted by the residence hall staff during the second week of classes of the fall semester. Residents will be given the option to choose "Open Visitation" (24 hour a day visitation) or "restricted visitation" (9am until 2am). It is very important to cast your vote. 75% of your residence hall must vote in order for the vote to count as valid. Of the people that vote in your hall, 75% must vote "in favor of a policy change" to change the policy to 24 hour visitation. If a residence hall does not gain 75% approval of 24 hour visitation, then the maximum visitation hours of 9am until 2am for the opposite gender will continue to be applied to all student rooms and public areas for the remainder of the academic year.
