Greetings, residence hall students,

I want to be among the first to say – Welcome Home!
 
As you get settled in, please take a moment to respond to this request for an update to your student account.
 
The request is prompted by the reauthorized Higher Education Act of 2008, which requires colleges and universities to:

• Inform students that they have the option to identify an individual to be contacted by the institution within 24 hours after the time the student is determined missing.
• Provide a means for students to register confidential contact information in the event the student is determined to be missing for a period of 24 hours.

You are encouraged to provide the university contact information for the person(s) you want to be notified in the event of an emergency. 

To register confidential contact information for someone to be contacted in the event of an emergency (including a report that you are missing), please follow these instructions:

• Log in to your FlashLine account and click on the “Settings” link on the left-hand side or, on mobile devices, by expanding the menu from the top navigation bar to edit your account profile.
• Scroll to the bottom of the page, where you will find: Secure Account Access
• Then select: Emergency Contacts
• Select one of the options, then either edit the existing information in your emergency contact address or input the contact information for the person you want to be contacted in the event of an emergency.

If you are reported missing, the institution will notify the appropriate law enforcement agency within 24 hours after you are determined missing. Additionally, ����Vlog�ƽ�� will initiate contact with the emergency contact person you have designated in your FlashLine account.
 
Go Flashes!

Greetings

Communication is essential to a positive, working relationship with any roommate or suitemates.  To facilitate this process, it is important to address potential problem areas before they become a problem. By discussing potential living concerns in the Roommate Agreement, roommates will begin to develop the kind of relationship that is conducive to positive academic, community, and personal growth. This process will also reduce or eliminate the possibility of conflict and increase communication between roommates.

Roommates do not need to be best friends, but it helps if they are fair, honest, and considerate with one another. Every resident needs to take responsibility for their own behavior and to share responsibility for the roommate relationship. Establishing ground rules that everyone can live with requires work, but the benefit of creating good relationships makes it worthwhile. Even if lifelong friendship between roommates is not established, learning to live with each other’s differences without infringing on one another’s freedom is a valuable part of your education.

You and your roommate are individuals with unique interests, goals, likes and dislikes. You may not find it necessary to share every aspect of college life with them. If conflicts do arise, speak with your roommate in person first; talk a problem through before it becomes a major conflict. If, after having talked with your roommate, you still can’t resolve the conflict, talk with your RA or Residence Life staff. Your hall staff is experienced in dealing with roommate problems and should be able to give you some sound advice. 

Roommate/Suitemate Agreements can be accessed by following this  or clicking the button below. Once completed, your RA will reach out to you to review your agreement!

 
Sincerely,
University Housing
