Sleeping, studying, and experiencing moments of peace are important aspects of college life, especially for students who are new to the college scene. In order to encourage students to balance those concerns with all the fun and excitement of college, the University has an evening curfew for resident freshmen and sophomore students. 

On Sunday - Thursday, the curfew is midnight. On Friday & Saturday, the curfew is 1 a.m. After curfew, students must be in the assigned areas of their residence halls or in the Commons area.

Late permission for freshmen and sophomores to be out of the residence hall after curfew will be granted at the discretion of the dormitory supervisor and only in cases of absolute necessity. Students with late permission must sign out appropriately. Sunday through Thursday, freshmen and sophomores may not be permitted to sign out to any place, but their parent’s home.

When signing out, students must go to the destination indicated on the sign-out sheet. Student Life personnel reserve the right to investigate the accuracy of the information submitted on the sign-out sheet.

If you are detained and cannot return to campus at the expected time, you must phone the dormitory supervisor. Voice mail messages may be left. If you fail to return when expected and do not call, the dormitory supervisor may phone your parents to confirm your whereabouts.
