[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here’s just a couple of them. The actual list is several pages long.

-A guest is only permitted to stay overnight 2 nights in a 7-day period in any university owned property (including all apartments, affiliated, and traditional residence halls).
 - Short term guests may visit from 12:00pm-12:00am. An overnight guest is any person remaining in a room/suite/apartment where they do not reside between 12:00am-12:00pm.
-Any guest in a residence hall between the hours of 8:00pm and 4:00am must be signed into that hall by the building resident who they intend to visit. Guests who enter prior to 8:00pm should be brought down to the security desk to be signed in.
-When the guest leaves, the host needs to accompany the guest to sign out of the building. Failure to adhere to sign-in/sign-out policies will result in loss of guest privileges.[/quote]

These are all fine. This is to prevent my guest from wandering from my room at 3am and going into some random person's room and raping them or stealing from them. It's also a fire safety (or active shooter) issue - this way they can account for everyone. The first rule is so a roommate doesn't get fed up with their roommate's boyfriend/girlfriend basically moving in and staying overnight 3, 4, etc. nights in a row.[/quote]
