Cot rentals suspended during Flu Season

Quad Residents:

Please note that Residential Life & Housing needs to temporarily suspend cot rentals for the time being. We will be using all available cots for students who have a roommate(s) that has the flu. Once the flu season has ended, I will send you an email to let you know that we are resuming the cot rentals. Also, please know that we will no longer be able to loan out vacuum cleaners.

Thank you for your understanding with this matter. Have a wonderful weekend and enjoy the beautiful weather!

Best, Steve Tolman, Associate Director
