The purpose of this guide is to serve as a resource and provide detailed information
needed by you while you reside on campus. If you find yourself in need of additional
assistance, we expect and encourage you to contact the ULM Department of Residential
Life.
By accepting a housing offer and moving in, you are expected to live by the rules,
regulations, and policies which the University has set. If you disagree with the institution's
policies or regulations, we encourage you to motivate change through the appropriate
supervisory channels. If you cannot change them and still cannot live with them, then
on-campus living may not be for you.
While this guide is an important reference for living on-campus, it is also expected
that you will be familiar with the following University publications:
The Guide to Residence Hall Living contains information on policies and procedures
that will be semesterly revised and changes may be made, as deemed necessary by the
Department of Residential Life Operations, the Office of Auxiliary Enterprise Administration,
or the Division of Student Affairs.
Supplemental Sections
Please keep in mind the process and deadlines, and that this may take time. Animals
cannot be brought onto campus or in residence until all paperwork has been completed
and approved through the Self-Development, Counseling, and Special Accommodations
Center AND all supplemental documents submitted to and approved by Residential Life.
Community Health Crises
In times of health events, residents must notify the office to protect the community
at large. Learn more in the Guide to Residence Hall Living. Remember to limit visitors and gatherings, maintain proper personal hygiene, clean/disinfect
areas for your personal belongings, self, and room/common areas, and wash hands or
use hand sanitizer if soap and water are not available. We ask that you continue to
respect those in our community. Your academic pursuit still continues and the residence
halls should maintain their academic mission.
COVID-19 is a very serious infection that affects people in different degrees. Some
students will not have any symptoms but they are still contagious. Other students
will have severe symptoms. You must follow these instructions and those given to you
by the medical professional where you were tested and from this institution. These
will be updated frequently as the university will continue to abide by COVID-19 directives
from the state of Louisiana, the University of Louisiana System, and follow CDC guidelines.

of a Resident Assistant.
