A MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN OF STUDENTS - Fisher College

GENERAL RESIDENTIAL INFORMATION
LAUNDRY
Laundry machines are located in the lower level of buildings 112/114. The laundry machines run via card access and
a machine is conveniently located in the mall area across from public safety that dispenses cards and allows you to
reload money onto the card. Pre-loaded cards can be purchased in the Office of Housing and Residential life for a
limited time. The College is not responsible for lost or damaged clothing caused by the use of the laundry facilities. If
the washer or dryer is inoperative, please fill out a maintenance request and turn it in to Maintenance. Please contact
housing staff so that an out of service notice can be placed on the equipment. In the meantime, we encourage our
students to be proactive and put up a note stating “Out of Service.”
LOCKOUTS
Students should carry their room keys with them when leaving their room. If a student is locked out of his/her room
they must go to housing Monday- Friday between 8am-4pm and if a staff member is available then they will be let into
their room after providing proof of identification. Public Safety is also available 24/7 to assist with lockouts if housing
staff is unavailable or it is after 4pm or during weekends. All lockouts are logged and numerous lockouts may result
in charges being assessed. Please understand that if you lock yourself out of your room there may be significant wait
time if housing staff or Public Safety are busy.
MAIL
Every resident is issued a mailbox and campus mailing address. Mailboxes are located in the Mall area across from
Alumni Hall. All mail will be delivered to this campus box including correspondence from professors Monday–Friday. It
is important that you check your mailbox daily. All packages too large to fit in your mailbox are delivered to the Housing
office. A package slip will be placed in your mailbox as notification that your package has arrived. You will need this
package slip and a photo ID to sign for and receive your package. If you have lost your mailbox combination or are
experiencing trouble opening your mailbox, please seek assistance at the Housing office.
TELEPHONES
Local telephone service is provided in each residence hall room. Phone extension and voice mailbox instructions are
provided by the housing office upon check in. If you have a cell phone, please remember to register the phone number
with the Registrar’s Office.
BANK ACCOUNTS
For personal finances, students are encouraged to open either a checking or a savings account at any of several local
banks. Several banks are within walking distance of the College.
