Quiet Hours
In order to secure the right of students to rest and to study free from unreasonable noise and other听distractions, the University has asked students to respect "quiet hours" - designated evening hours during which听residents are expected to observe quiet behavior. Quiet hours refer to the period of time听from 10:00 pm to 7:00 am. Parties or听large gatherings are not permitted in dormitory rooms at any time and excessive noise should be avoided听at all times.
听
Commons Areas
Commons areas in the Dormitory are provided to Dormitory residents as a space in which they may gather听outside of dormitory rooms. Residents must be respectful of the rights of other students to share this听space, and must be mindful of the noise generated at all times. Quiet hours apply.
听
Computer Room
The computer room in the Dormitory is provided for study purposes. To respect other students鈥� right for听study, noise must be avoided at all times. Social activities must not take place in the computer room.听Only Dormitory residents may have access to computers in Computer room. The only exception to this rule is听if other students are actively working on academic projects together with residents of the Dormitory.
听
Kitchen
Only the residents of the Dormitory are allowed to use the kitchen facilities. Residents are responsible for听removing unused or spoiled foods. Any food items left in the refrigerator for an extended period of time听will be thrown away by the Resident Assistant and duty members. Residents are 听responsible for maintaining kitchen听cleanliness and turning off kitchen facilities (water faucets, hot plates, etc.) before leaving the kitchen听area. The kitchen provides an equal opportunity for all residents to cook; therefore, personal stoves in rooms are not allowed, for the fire security of AUCA Dormitory residents.
听
Laundry Room
Only residents of the Dormitory are allowed to use laundry room鈥檚 facilities. All residents need to follow the schedule of Laundry days.
听
Floor facilities

Any food items听left in the refrigerator for an extended period of time will be thrown away by Resident Assistant and duty members.听Residents are responsible to keep the floor microwave clean after each usage. Residents have to use听microwave lids and clean them every time after usage as well.
听
Dorm Visitation
Dormitories are open to visitors from 7:00am until 9:00p.m. A roommate's right to free access to the听room at all times must not be abridged by visitation. A roommate must not be deprived of the right to听privacy, study time, or sleep because of a guest. When there are infractions of the visitation rules, action听will be taken against all offending parties according to the following guidelines.
a) In the case of an infraction involving a first-time offense where the guilty parties react in a cooperative
manner the Resident Assistant should give the students a reprimand and first warning.
b) In the case of an infraction involving persons who are not cooperative or who are repeat offenders, the guilty
parties will be reported to the coordinator of the dormitory Ekaterina Sanamiants who will take
further actions.
c) In the case of individuals who are reported for a visitation infraction after having already been warned
by the head coordinator or in a case involving cohabitation, the guilty parties shall听be turned over to the
head coordinator. The head coordinator will then decide the form of penalty depending on the severity of the
case. The consequences听may include, but are not limited to, the following penalties: loss of priority for room sign-up for the next
year; loss of visitation/guest privileges in one's dormitory; or eviction from the dormitory system.
听
a) Residents may not have long term guests in the residential facilities. Guests may only stay in a
dormitory room with the permission of all persons assigned to the room or suite. Residents should register
their guests with the Resident Assistant and Security.
b) Guests are required to abide by University policy including policies governing alcohol and drug use.
Residents will be held responsible for any damages or infractions perpetrated by guests.
c) Privileges to have guests in the residential halls may be revoked if a student's guests violate University
policies.
e) The University assumes no financial responsibility for lost or stolen property. Please contact your
Resident Assistant if you become aware of a theft or of intrusions by unauthorized persons.
