Bicycles

A special note about bicycles-You are welcomed to bring your bike, but you cannot easily store it in your room. Bike racks are provided around the residence halls-be sure to bring a strong U-shaped lock (not a cable lock)!

Packing for your move

Most interns bring too much stuff! Please "pack light" for your trip to campus. Remember, we have easily accessible stores close to campus, so if you forget something, you can get it here! Last, storage in your room is limited to your wardrobe, footlocker, and under your bed. There are no storage rooms in any of our halls.
The kitchens in apartments have a microwave, refrigerator, dishwasher, sink, and stove, so the following are suggested items:
  • Kitchen Supplies: Kitchen towels, dishwasher detergent, liquid soap, paper towels, ice trays, and trash bags.
  • Bathroom Supplies: Toilet paper, toiletries, trash bags, towels, bath mat, shower caddie, first-aid supplies


Note: Personal appliances that are used for cooking need to be used in a proper and safe manner. No open flame device is allowed in any residence hall. Appliances that generate high temperatures (generally over 140 degrees such as a George Foreman grill or portable deep fat fryers) can only be used at approved locations. The top of any of the apartment or common area stoves provided with exhaust hoods are considered the only approved locations for use within residence halls.

The apartments also have living room furnishings, with dining table and chairs, sofa, chairs, and coffee table. All of these items must stay in the living room the entire summer. They cannot be removed or placed in storage. The apartment has a telephone jack in the living room and each bedroom.

Individual health and air quality requirements vary greatly between people's desires and needs. Individuals should plan for small portable units (de-humidifer, air cleaner, humidifier, fan, ionizer. etc.) that meet their personal comfort desires as these items are not supplied in the rooms.
