Are all the halls co-ed?
Yes, all halls are co-ed to different extents. Some are co-ed by floor (only males or only females live on the floor) and others are co-ed by room (only men or only women live in each room, but each room on the floor could be a different gender). Floors that are co-ed by room have seperate bathroom facilities for each gender.
How long are the beds? What size sheets will I need?
All the beds in the residence halls are twin beds. North Hall has 76 inch beds, the rest are 80 inches long. We recommend that resident students in halls other than North Hall bring extra long (81") twin bed sheets to campus. These extra-long sheets are available at most retail stores.
Does my room come with window treatments?
All windows come with horizontal blinds. Sizes vary so if you want to purchase additional treatments you must wait until you move and measure the exact size. There are many retailers within minutes of campus.
What type of furniture is in my room?
All rooms come with a bed, desk, shared dresser, a closet, and in some cases a freestanding wardrobe.
Are lofts allowed?
Huskie lofts (commercially provided) and student provided lofts are indeed allowed in most residences. Lofts are not permitted in the Carmel Living Learning Center, Ernsthausen Hall or Heritage 3E because these areas have loftable furniture.
