No Mail Service During Thanksgiving and Winter Breaks

Mail service will not be available until the residence halls reopen in November for Thanksgiving and January for Winter break. Your mail will not be forwarded during these breaks. There will be no access to mail during these times, as all reception desks are not staffed. If you are expecting an important piece of mail or package, please make sure it is mailed to you before the residence halls close or make other arrangements for delivery.

Your Dining Dollars will be recharged for Spring semester in January. Also, any Dining Dollars left over from Fall Semester will carry forward to Spring Semester. If you are not returning to the residence halls for the Spring semester, you will lose any unused Dining Dollars.
