All rooms in the residence halls are partially furnished, the exact specifications depending on the hall and the room. Students are encouraged to personalize their rooms within the bounds of their housing contracts and, of course, safety.

Standard Furniture
All residence hall rooms include the following furnishings:

• beds
• mattresses and pads (all mattresses are extra long, 36" x 80")
• desks and desk chairs
• cable TV access
• special data port providing fast connection to the campus network and Internet (ResNet)
• sink
• mirror
• medicine cabinet
• drapes
• bulletin board
• wastebasket
• activated telephone outlet
• All halls are carpeted except Slater

Other furniture and facilities may come with certain rooms in certain halls, including chest of drawers, kitchens, baths, etc.

Lofts
All residence hall rooms have loft beds. You will not be allowed to bring a loft since the furniture provided can be lofted. In fact, if you are assigned to a single or double room, the bed will be lofted.

Once you arrive on campus, if you would like to reconfigure your bed in any of these buildings, complete a custodial work order at your 24-hour desk and specify the configuration number on your work order. The University Housing Facilities staff must do the work for you. These beds are very heavy, so do not try to make the change yourself. You will be charged for any missing pieces and/or damaged furniture.

Lounge, Public Area Furniture
Equipment and furnishings in lounges, study areas, or any other general purpose areas of the residence halls have been placed there for all residents to use. Residents may not take any of this equipment or furniture to their rooms. Any public area furniture found in a resident's room will be removed by residence hall staff at the resident's expense ($50 per piece of furniture) and may also lead to disciplinary action.

Removals
Extra beds and other furniture will be removed from double rooms only if they have been contracted out as singles (or a triple room if contracted as a double). The custodial staff may also remove and store extra bed parts after changing bed configurations. Otherwise all University Housing furniture must remain in the room.
