Examples include, but are not limited to, residents maintaining a safe, healthy, and clean environment within their individual rooms and shared living spaces at all times, smells deemed to be hazardous, unhealthy, unsanitary, odors consistent with marijuana, and excessive noise. Individuals or groups of individuals alleged as not following the Good Neighbor Policy will be documented with a verbal notification by Campus Safety, Housing & Residence Life Staff, or other appropriate University staff. Multiple notifications will lead to a violation of this policy and may be subject to disciplinary sanctions.
