Substance-Free Housing is an inviting community that incorporates programs and activities for diverse interests.
If you want to live in an environment where individual decisions are respected and a unique sense of community exists, then this is the place to be!
Since the program began, demand for Substance-Free Housing has increased dramatically and now occupies all of Banks Hall and a portion of Adirondack Hall.
For the 2008-2009 academic year, Adirondack Hall will become predominantly substance-free while Banks Hall is renovated. This building will house all class levels. Banks Hall will return to Substance-Free Housing when it reopens after the renovation in the fall of 2009.
Residents of this special housing sign a contract explicitly stating that they will live a completely substance-free lifestyle within the building and that they also will not return to the building in a state that might be disruptive to the substance-free environment.
So, What Is There to Do?
Well, there's a little bit of something for everyone. The Residence Hall Staff and Hall Councils provide a great variety of activities. Past programs have included:
- karaoke
- ice skating
- sledding
- retreats
- movie series
- pool tournaments
- board games
- wellness workshops
- skiing, hiking, and much more!
Programs are especially abundant on Friday and Saturday nights when you're looking for varied activities and someone to do them with!
Who Lives In Substance-Free Housing?
Students from freshmen to seniors. Students from diverse backgrounds and geographic locations. Students with a variety of majors. Student government officers. Athletes. Greeks. Club officers and members. Musicians. They all come together to live here. Why don't you?
