Noise in Residential Communities

Affected Parties

Undergrads in Residence

Policy Statement

Students are expected to exercise courtesy when playing music or participating in other activity that may disturb other residents and/or interfere with the attempts of others to study. Courtesy hours serve as a reminder to all residents of the primary rights to sleep and study in the residential communities. 

  • All residential communities will adhere to 24-hour courtesy hours.
  • Residents, guests, and others when outside should maintain reasonable noise levels when in close proximity to College residences.
  • Noise complaints may lead to disciplinary action.
  • Repeated noise complaints against an individual demonstrate an inability to respect the rights of others and will likely result in the offending student being removed from housing.
