Maintenance Policy
Due to the busy schedules of our maintenance workers, we do not schedule appointments. Maintenance workers will knock before entering a room and if no one answers, they will let themselves in and announce their presence. Only in an extreme emergency, such as no hot water/heat, will a maintenance worker make repairs in a residence hall room before 9 a.m.
