Alcohol-Free Communities

An alcohol-free community is defined as a floor or building in which residents and visitors, regardless of their age, abstain from possessing alcohol. Exposing others in the area to secondary effects of such usage (e.g. noise, vandalism and messes resulting from the use of a substance) is also prohibited. These areas are open to all students living in the residence halls.

Firsty-year floors with students under the age of 21 are designated as alcohol-free. Other floors with a majority first-year aged students are also alcohol-free. While year-to-year floor populations can vary, generally the following areas can be expected to be alcohol free unless notified otherwise by Resident Assistant staff:

• All floors in Dows Hall
• All floors in Pauley-Rorem Hall
• All floors in Tarr Hall
• Pfeiffer Hall floors with many first-years
• Bowman-Carter floors with many-first years
