Cumberlands Q & A

Students who live on campus receive a variety of benefits, including a full service meal plan, full coverage on all utilities maintenance, internet access and free laundry facilities.

Health and safety inspections or HSIs for short are conducted by your resident life staff. Every other week we check for things like trash, properly stored food, properly stored laundry, fire alarms, windows, window screens and room accessibility. If you have any questions, will be glad to answer those when you get here and we will let you know when they happen at the beginning of each semester.

So depending on room size and availability, each student will be assigned to a room with either one or two roommates. Triple rooms when three students share a space are more common in first year halls, but are less common than double rooms. Each student will receive a key to their room and will share the space. Our residence halls that you see vary in size, ranging from 80 to 300 students.

So open House is what we call our visiting hours in our residence halls. Open House is a designated time every evening where guests of the opposite gender can visit each other's dorm rooms.

If you have any more questions, a full description of the policies regarding Open House and overnight guests can be found on the residents Life section of the UC Student Handbook.
