In addition, students should refrain from keeping cash and/or expensive items in their residence hall apartment. Students should keep their apartment doors locked whenever they are not present. Should residents choose to purchase items in partnership with each other, the Housing and Residence Life Office will not enforce the division of property should a disagreement arise.
