To maximize space, students may have lofts in most buildings. All lofts must meet the university's approval and must be able to incorporate the university provided springs and mattress. Students may choose to elevate their standard twin bed to create more storage space in the room. Carpets are permitted in the students' rooms. Room size varies, but most rooms will accommodate a 10' x 15' carpet. The university does not provide vacuum cleaners, but individual halls may own them and have them available. Standard household goods such as shower curtains, lamps, wastebaskets, pillows, bed and bath linens, and throw rugs are not provided. One microwave that draws 700 watts or less is permitted per room in Bolling, Draper, Floyd, Ingles, Norwood, Peery, Pocahontas, Stuart, Trinkle, and Tyler Halls. Microwaves are not allowed in Jefferson, Madison, Moffett, Muse, or Washington Halls. Students can bring plants, fish, UL approved circuit breaker power strips, TVs and stereos, VCRs, computers, printers, hot pots, coffee makers, lofts (some halls), fans, refrigerators (less than 2 amps), lamps, flashlights and personal furniture along with them.
