Before you leave, please complete this checklist.

• If you are returning to your room for the spring semester, keep your key with you. You will use the same key to access your room in the spring.
• Close and lock windows and leave blinds closed. Be sure your windows latch and lock properly—if they do not, let your RA know immediately.
• Turn the heat on and the fan to low. The temperature must be set in the middle (we recommend you set it at 70 degrees, but no lower).
• Remove all perishable food items from your room.  Be sure that all perishable food items are also removed from refrigerators.
• Empty the trash and take the recycling out.
• Unplug all items in your room except for your mini-fridge. Please be sure that you have thrown away any perishable items from the fridge.
• Clean your room, bathroom and common living area - Cleaning supplies are available at your area front desk. If your bathroom is dirty, you may be billed for custodial staff to come in and clean it.
• Take valuables & medication home with you.
• Residents of Kahlert, Lassonde, Epicenter, and Marriott Honors Community who would like to leave their vehicles over the winter break period should relocate their vehicles to Lot 111, the Myriad Garage located in Research Park, beginning 12/9. Vehicles need to be removed from this lot no later than 1/5.
• If living on upper campus, it is suggested to move your car to the 813/814 (Lot 87) Sage Point parking lot so grounds staff can plow the parking lots.
• Close and lock your bedroom and suite door.

NOTE: If you have a vacant space in your room or suite:  You should expect a new roommate for the spring. Please be sure the common areas have space for your new roommate and that they will feel welcome upon arrival in January.
