Hall closing

All residents must check out within 24 hours of their last final exam, or by 5:00 pm on Friday, whichever comes first. Halls close at 5:00 pm on the Friday of exam week.

Continuous quiet hours

To promote an academic-focused environment, continuous quiet hours will be in effect during finals week. Quiet hours are 24 hours per day.

During continuous quiet hours please do not make any excessive noises during moving (i.e., do not vacuum or hammer). The daily relaxed periods when the noise level may increase—although courtesy hours still apply—will be 7-9 pm
