As you start to think about gifts or items you want to give your college student who is returning to live in our residence halls, please make sure to review the list of things which are not approved for University housing. Some typical gifts include candles, wax warmers, or Scentsy warmers. These items are fire hazards not only for your student but also the other students and staff who live in the building.
Students who are found to have a candle, wax warmer, or Scentsy warmer in their living space will participate in the conduct process and, if found to be responsible, will see consequences such as warnings, removal of the item(s), and writing a two-page paper on fire safety in the residence halls.
To ensure that your gift is not a violation of any rules, please make sure to review both the Residence Hall Guide to Living and the What to Bring checklist.
