Firearms of any type aren’t permitted in residence—and leave the ammunition at home, too. Includes paintball and pellet guns, bows/arrows, hunting knives and explosive/flammable devices.

Small cooking appliances, microwaves, fridges or freezers are not permitted in your room. Fridges are provided in the common spinwheel kitchens. Small appliances can be used in the dorm kitchens, but there is limited room.

Pets and fish are not allowed on residence grounds or in rez buildings.

Room heating devices such as small heaters. This is a safety precaution because of the fire potential. You can adjust the heat in your room.

Candles, incense, fireworks and sparklers. If you have to light it—then don’t bring it. And remember there’s no smoking anywhere inside residence buildings.

Bottles of beer. Don’t get excited, beer is allowed in residence. Unfortunately glass bottles break in places like sidewalks and parking lots and broken glass is dangerous. So, if you’re buying, pick cans. Thanks.
