Residents are responsible for the actions of their guests.

Student recruits (athletic, admissions, or other university programs) need to register with HRL at least 48 hours prior to a visit. Overnight guests of the opposite gender are not permitted.
Cohabitation:

Any guest spending the night more than three consecutive nights within the residence halls may be seen as a violator of cohabitation.
