Any items left in a common area will be discarded and the house will be charged for the removal of excessive trash. See below for local storage options. If you are using Boomerang Storage you may leave your containers/boxes in your room for them to pick up on Sunday, June 1, 2025.

Check all drawers and cabinets to ensure that nothing is left behind. Items left in student rooms will be donated at the College’s discretion.

Plants can be brought to the UpCaf. Please put your name on them

College-issued furniture needs to be returned to the proper room and assembled. If it is not or if it is damaged, you will be charged a fee for Buildings and Grounds staff to reassemble, move and/or replace it.

Free piles are not allowed in houses. Donations can be brought to TAPA (Fridays and Saturdays 6:00–10:00 pm, Sundays 12:00–4:00 pm) or to the blue bins in the Student Center. TAPA closes for the term on Sunday, May 25. If free piles are found in the houses, the houses will be charged for removal.

Put all of your garbage in plastic bags and dispose of it in the proper receptacles (the dumpsters on your street). Leaving trash in your room will result in individual room charges.

Give your room a clean sweep before you leave. You will avoid a charge and your housekeeper will thank you for it.
