[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, I'm surprised the college allows that?! When I was in college, you had to get prior approval for overnight guests and it could never be for more than a night. I have three kids in school now and it is the same way for them as well.[/quote]

Graduated in the 80s and have never, ever heard of any non-religious, non-military/maritime college that still had parietal rules.  Not one.  Typically stay-overs involving the same or affiliated colleges aren't really scrutinized unless there's a complaint or problem.   For non-students, unless there's a complaint or problem, usually it's a discretionary soft-cap.

  Virginia Tech had them in the 80's.  I know because I was there and graduated in 1986.  [/quote]

Graduated from W&M in 1987, no rules of this sort. Not even when I lived in an all-women's dorm.[/quote]

Correction: At W&M there were policies governing how frequently one could have overnight guests and for how long but IME they weren't invoked unless someone lodged a specific complaint. There were no prior approval of guests, no limited visiting hours, etc.[/quote]
