Welcome to your “home away from home”! While we can’t
completely duplicate all of the conveniences you’ve had at home, we can
certainly try.
- Enhanced laundry services – Included in your room
rate is a “laundry fee” which entitles you unlimited washer and dryer use.
Gone are the days of sitting on a machine and waiting for an available
washer or dryer. LaundryView™ is a service provided by our laundry vendor, Mac Gray.
LaundryView™ allows you to check the status of your washer and dryer
online from your room, the library, class, computer lab, or even the
coffee shop on campus. You can even register for an alert system which
will send you an email when a machine is available!
-
 University Loft Co. furniture – In your room you will find
a versitle set of furniture. The loft set allows you to bunk or
loft your room furniture to fit more of those items you can’t live
without! Room desks will fit larger computer monitors, and there’s no
need to buy those bed risers as you can raise or
 lower your bed to any
position desired. Our mattresses may be a bit thicker and longer than
what you have at home. Bed linens can be purchased at any store in your
local neighborhood (Target, Wal-Mart, Linens n Things, etc.). You’ll
likely receive offers to buy specially-fitted sheets from many different
vendors, but any type of twin-sized sheet will do!
- Recreational lounges – Several buildings feature
pool tables which convert into ping pong tables and foosball. Residence
hall lounges also include televisions, internet connections, snack and
soda machines featuring energy drinks, and other items depending on the
building. Vending machines allow you to use your Gull Card if you have
deposited money into the campus debit account.
-
 Microfridges – Microfridge units are available for
rent from King Fridge. Our microfridge vendor will send you the information to
complete a contract and arrange delivery. King Fridge will deliver the
unit to your room, and pick it up at the end of the year! If you’re
looking to have a microwave in your room and avoid those long walks to
the first floor to cook ramen noodles…the microfridge is the only SU
approved microwave allowed in student rooms.|
- Wireless internet – During the 2007-08 academic
year wireless capabilities will be added to the campus network in the
residence halls. Currently, most other buildings on campus have wireless
access…and pretty soon so will your room. Once the wireless network is
setup in your building you’ll be notified about how to take advantage in
our quest to “cut the cord” on internet access!
- Recycling – Feel free to purchase your own
mini-recycling container for your room. Located in the dumpster area of
every building there are large bins for paper, aluminum, and plastic recycling. We
strongly encourage recycling on campus, so please have a system for
separating your trash to keep our campus “green” friendly!
- Dining Locations – The Commons is your main source
for dining on campus, and is the only location which allows you to use
your meal plan. East Coaster’s, located in the Guerreri University
Center, will allow you to use dining dollars and money deposited into
your campus debit account. Satellite dining carts are located in Henson,
Caruthers, and Fulton Halls to grab a quick snack before heading to
class. The Gull Card allows you to purchase food at local restaurants if
you have money deposited in your campus debit account. Visit the
University Dining Services and the Gull Card office websites for more
information.
- Fitness rooms – We’re still a few years away from
creating fitness rooms inside the residence halls. However, Magg’s
Physical Activities Center features flexible hours from early in the
morning to late at night for you to use the strength room, nautilus
room, racquetball courts, basketball courts, and swimming pool. Check
their website for more information
