pluGGED In on campus Oregon State University is Powered by Orange. And one of the best ways you can draw from that energy is to live on campus.Our variety of housing options gives you more than a place to sleep. It makes you part of a community. It gives you a place to grow and make the college experience everything you want it to be. And it provides a strong support network to help you thrive. It’s where you can be independent, but not alone.

You’ll meet people from around Oregon, the United States and the world — people like you and others who couldn’t be more different. You can live with an old friend or make a new one. Enjoy free programs in your residence hall that will encourage you, spark conversations or just entertain you. Have weekly dinners with your floor mates. Make it to class and campus events with a 10-minute walk (or less).

Whether you’re traveling 50 or 5,000 miles for college, you’ll find yourself at home when you live on campus. Explore all our different choices to find the one that’s right for you.

BRAndy CORdEiRO And SHAwnA FUjiTA both thought it would be a better experience to live on campus for their first year at Oregon State. Coming from Hawaii, “we didn’t really know anyone,” Shawna says. Not even each other.

Brandy knew she wanted to find a roommate who shared her culture. “I was looking for a roommate from Hawaii because we’d have more things in common,” she says.

Using OSU’s Roommate Matching Network, the two found each other and bonded over their similar backgrounds and interest in Oregon State. They took a virtual tour of the residence halls, which Brandy says was “super helpful,” getting the suite-style room they wanted in Bloss Hall.

“We didn’t actually meet in person until StARt,” Shawna says. But once they met, the two found themselves getting along easily — even their parents liked each other.

Shawna and Brandy have enjoyed taking advantage of multiple opportunities on campus. Shawna likes playing intramural sports — bowling, soccer and softball — while Brandy has appreciated the chance to experience new things. “You find your independence here by taking everything in,” Brandy says.

The best part of having a roommate is having someone to talk to. “If you were by yourself you would be lonely,” Shawna says. “Very lonely,” Brandy agrees.

They give credit to the Roommate Matching Network for finding such a good fit as roommates. “Who knows what we would have gotten,” Shawna says. “It has been perfect for us.”

Residence HallsA residence hall is more than a 12 X 14 ft. room where you can rest your head in between classes. At OSU, a residence hall is a community. It’s a place where friendships, ideas and memories are created. All residence halls are conveniently located on the south, east and west areas of campus. Each features high-speed wireless Internet throughout the building.

Residence Hall StaffA big part of residence hall living is making sure your needs are met beyond the classroom. We want our students to succeed at OSU. That’s why there are live-in staff members in each hall, including a Resident Assistant (RA) on each floor or wing and a Resident Director (RD) in each building. These standout upper-division or graduate students and professional staff prepare programs for residents and are on hand to offer assistance with issues from labs to laundry. They’re also available to help you achieve the incredible college experience you planned for.

Cooperative HousesThere are four university-owned co-op houses on the east side of a campus. A cooperative is a large two- or three-story housewith38to64memberslivingtogetherinahome-likeenvironment. The or co-ops are democratically managed by their residents. Each house has a UHDS-trained director who lives in the house and helps advise the executive board. House members reduce living expenses by sharing work duties. two to five students are usually assigned to a study room with a desk, closet and space for personal belongings. Shared sleeping rooms (called sleeping porches) with bunk beds are separate from the study rooms. All co-ops have television rooms, study areas and living room space. Most also have recreation areas. All are smoke-free environments.

House members contract with their individual house for a meal plan. All co-ops have kitchens and hire a cook to prepare lunch and dinner each weekday. Weekend meals are assigned as a house duty to residents throughout the term. All members have kitchen privileges for preparing snacks and breakfast.

Individual study rooms have local cable tV, telephone line service and data jacks for high-speed Internet access for each co-op member.

Co-op student bills are paid directly to the house and cannot be charged to a student account. The bill varies by house, provided by house executive members to residents at the beginning of the term.

wHEn CORinnE CHUn CAME TO OREgOn STATE UnivERSiTy, living on campus seemed like a natural choice.

“I thought living on campus would be great,” Corinne said. “It’s convenient, it’s close to all my classes — everything is within walking distance.”

Corinne continued living on campus through her senior year, working as a Resident Assistant (RA) in Finley Hall. Corinne says she has stayed in the residence hall because she enjoys being immersed in the college environment.

“I love that opportunity to make new friends and interact with people,” she says.

As an RA, Corinne served as a resource for residents in her hall when they have questions, need help with classes or just want to talk. “I’m there to support them and to help them when they need it,” she says.

In addition to being close to classes, campus restaurants and resources like Dixon Recreation Center and the Valley Library, Corinne says living in a residence hall comes with a lot of other benefits, including being able to meet people with similar interests, activities and majors.

“I definitely think living on campus provides the best experience for you to interact with people and to really just feel like you’re in college,” Corinne says.

Community Service LearningBloss Hall has community service-learning, interdisciplinary theme in which the hall staff work with residents to create a compelling living and learning experience with the community. Community service-learning is a concept that promotes responsible citizenry, and it fully integrates experiential, hands-on learning activities with a student’s academic and social experience.

Students learn to make the connection between belief in helping others and acting to influence social change in the hall, around campus, off campus and globally.

International ExperienceThe International Living-Learning Center is designed for international students as well as those interested in the world community. Student programs and events encourage communication, involvement and positive community interactions, with a focus on foreign languages, cultural studies, study abroad and connections with campus international programs.

Sandy Neubaum Faculty in Residence — Weatherford Hall

College of Business

SAndy nEUBAUM doesn’t actually live in Weatherford Hall. It just seems that way.

As the associate director for the Austin Entrepreneurship Program (AEP), which is housed in Weatherford, Neubaum describes her role as supporting the living-learning com-munity of 290 students. That means helping them determine what they’re excited about and putting them in the position to act on it.

“College is about finding out who you are,” she says. “It’s laying the foundation so you can spend your life loving what you do.”

Neubaum says entrepreneurship isn’t just for business; it’s a way of approaching your college career. “OSU is rich with opportunities; take advantage of them all,” she says. “If you develop those skills in college, it will follow you the rest of your life.”

Most AEP students living in Weatherford are freshman, and Neubaum encourages all freshmen to start out living on campus. She believes it gives students a strong support network, helping them build connections within the OSU community. “Living on campus helps you find your home on campus,” she says.

As faculty-in-residence, much of Neubaum’s job is simply being available — as a teacher, adviser and mentor. And she can draw from her own experience.

“I knew as soon as I stepped into a classroom that I wanted to teach. When I came to OSU, I knew this was the best place for me to be,” she says. “I tell students to listen to your gut, listen to your head and follow your heart. That will serve you well throughout your life.”

On-campus dining options are very limited during vacation breaks.

Residents who do not receive assignments before arriving at OSU should check with the University Housing & Dining Services staff at the central office or any service center regarding their placement.

If you choose your own room during the Priority Housing Selection application process, that space will be reserved for you contingent on receipt of a signed contract. For students who do not select their own room, assignments will be mailed before July 1 when possible for applications received by June 15. Assignments for winter and spring terms will be mailed before the term begins or sent via email.

Contract Cancellation FeeUniversity Housing and Dining Services offers a full-year contract, beginning September16,2012andendingJune14,2013.Studentswhoarriveduringtheyearwillbeofferedacontractfortheremainderoftheyear,endingonJune14,2013.Cancellation of your room reservation after the cancellation date will require full payment of room and board, excluding unused Dining Dollars. Contract holders who cancel their contract after the cancellation deadline but before occupying a space will be assess the full contract amount. Contract holders who cancel after occupying their space will be assessed the remaining days of their contract at the date of check-out, excluding remaining Dining Dollars.

Cancellation of Assignment by the UniversityResidence hall and cooperative house assignments will be canceled at noon on the first day of classes at the beginning of each term if the student has not officially checked into the assigned space, unless UHDS has received written notification from the student that the resident will be arriving late. Reassignment of late-arriving students who do not provide written notice will be made upon their arrival at the university. The university may cancel a residence hall or cooperative house contract due to conduct or community standards violations and cancellation fees will still apply. Due process will be afforded the student should that occur. Students who have their enrollment or housing contract canceled must vacate their residence within 24 hours. In the event of a potential threat to themselves or others, students may be relocated to an alternate on-campus living space or have to vacate on campus housing immediately.

If you decide not to attend OSU, please inform University Housing & Dining Services so your room reservation can be reassigned.

Room Change (residence halls)Requests to change rooms will be granted as circumstances permit and as determined by UHDS. No room changes will be allowed until UHDS accommodates students who may have been placed in a temporary housing situation. Specific information regarding the process for room changes is available at all UHDS Service Center locations, or from your Resident or Co-op Director. During the academic year we offer room changes weeks three - nine of each term.

RIGHTs anD REsponsIbIlITIEsThe rationale for most UHDS rules are based on the four Compelling Community Interest principles outlined in Judicious Leadership for Residence Hall Living by Forrest gathercoal. (1991, Caddo gap Press). These principles apply to all students with regard to their rights and responsibilities on campus.

Compelling Community Interests

Health and Personal SafetyHealth and personal safety policies are designed to help protect students against incidents or behavior that may jeopardize the physical, mental, emotional health and/or safety of either the residential community or individual students. That requires limiting certain individual rights for the common good of the community.

Property, Property Loss or DamageWhile the Oregon State campus has a relatively low incidence of crime, it is important to remember that no community can be totally risk-free from incidents that cause property loss and damage. All members of the community share the responsibility to care for and protect both common and personal property.

Serious Disruption of the Educational EnvironmentFor a large number of people to live together successfully, each member of the community has a responsibility to respect the needs and rights of others. Rules are established and enforced to support a successful campus living environment, as well as for the efficient, effective operation of residence halls, cooperative houses and family housing units. Please remember that you are responsible not only for your own behavior but also for the behavior of your guests. You and your guests must abide by the community standards to protect your rights, as well as the rights of others, to make on-campus living a positive aspect of your college experience.

Legitimate Educational PurposeIt’s common to ask in student government, staff training and certain student conduct situations, “Why are you here?” generally, the answer is, “to get a degree.” Based on this fundamental premise, anything not

directly or indirectly contributing to the accomplishment of this goal goes against the legitimate educational purpose of the university and of the housing system. UHDS policies and programs are designed to support the university’s educational mission.
