ENTER INTO THIS CONTRACT. For the purposes of this contract, an undergraduate
student who registers for 12 or more credits at the University is a full-time student,
and a graduate student who registers for 9 or more credits is a full-time student.
3. In exchange for room and on-campus meal plan*(see Paragraph 17 for Chancellors/Priory
Hall/Haymarket Landing/Aspenson Mogensen Hall assertions), the student agrees to pay to
the University the fees established for the room and on-campus meal plan* (see Paragraph 17
for Chancellors/Priory Hall/Haymarket Landing/Aspenson Mogensen Hall assertions) by the
Regents of the University of Wisconsin System or by its agent. The University reserves the
right to make changes in room and on-campus meal plan* (see Paragraph 17 for
Chancellors/Priory Hall/Haymarket Landing/Aspenson Mogensen Hall assertions) rates in the
event that the costs related to providing those services increase more than anticipated at the
time the rates were established.
A. The student understands and agrees that this contract covers space in University on-
campus or University sponsored housing. The University reserves the right to assign
the student to a specific location in any University housing space but will attempt to
honor the student’s expressed preference for location. The University’s inability to
honor a preference is not grounds for cancellation.
B. The space assigned to the student is to be used and occupied by the student for
residential purposes ONLY.
4. The contract terminates twenty-four hours after the termination of the student’s status as a
student at the University, or as provided, under Paragraph 16 herein. The student agrees to
vacate the premises at the end of the contract period and to follow checkout procedures
established by the University Housing and Residence Life Office.
5. Cancellation requests are permitted prior to May 1st of the year preceding this contract. There
are no cancellations permitted after the May 1st deadline, except for those no longer attending
the University
A. Partial release from the contract may be granted for University-sanctioned activities
limited to study abroad, student teaching, or academic credit-bearing internships in which
the activity is more than 40 miles from the Eau Claire campus. The release would only
be granted for the semester in which the activity occurs.
6. New students to the University do not pay a separate housing deposit. Students who are
returning must pay at $75 housing deposit as well as submit the housing contract to be eligible
for University housing. If any student fails to self-select a room during room selection when
they are eligible, the housing contract remains in effect and the University will assign the
student to a space/room on campus.
A. For returning students, the $75 housing deposit is in addition to the room fees and is
intended to serve as a reservation deposit for the contract. The money is held in

a student into the second semester and the deposit is forfeited. Deposits will be
refunded only if the student cancels contract prior to May 1st of the preceding year.

been officially released by the Housing and Residence Life Office. The student must
request this release prior to May 1st of the preceding year.

assigned to the student. If the student is absent from his/her room and the University
 reasonably believes that entry is necessary to preserve or protect the premises, the University
may enter without notice and with such force as appears necessary.
7. Any personal property left at the end of the contract term shall be removed from the room. If
not claimed within 30 days, it will be considered abandoned and disposed of accordingly.

responsible for damage or theft of the property.

damage/service fee schedule for that year.

indemnify them for, any claims for damages sustained by the student or others in their room or
furnishings (as is sometimes done by residents) such as the construction of bunk beds,

Residence Hall Co-Educational Judicial Council, apart from and in addition to those remedies,

18. Those choosing to live in Suites/Chancellor/Haymarket/Aspenson Mogensen Gender Inclusive
community or Rainbow Floor, commit to actively support the
Suites/Chancellors/Haymarket/Aspenson Mogensen Gender Inclusive or Rainbow Floor
community environment which has been designed to provide a welcoming and inclusive space
for residential students of all gender expressions and their guests. They agree that in order to
live in a gender inclusive space, they must adhere to the following community living standards:
 A. I will respect all members of the community and their guests. I will strive to understand
inclusion, diversity, and difference, including different forms of sexual and romantic
orientations and gender identities. In addition, I will hold my guests to the same
standard of respect and inclusion.
B. I will be aware of, and responsible for, my own language. I will strive to use inclusive
language and be open to embracing new terms.
C. I will learn about others’ experiences and preferences in regard to their level of
disclosure of personal information, and I will respect their need for privacy.
D. Should a vacancy occur in my gender inclusive unit in Suites, Chancellors, Haymarket
or Aspenson Mogensen, I am responsible for finding a replacement in order to
maintain my unit as a gender inclusive unit. If I cannot find a replacement within 3
weeks of notice from the departing student, Housing & Residence Life may fill the
space with another student wishing to live in the community. Additionally, Housing &
Residence Life may re-designate the space as single gender and relocate a
member(s) of the unit in order to increase the likelihood that the remaining space can
be filled.
E. If I elect to be a resident within the Rainbow Floor communities, I understand that
room selection and assignments are done without regard for assigned sex, gender
identity or expression, or sexuality.
F. I understand that this space is designed to be a safe and inclusive living environment.
As a result, if I am unable to adhere to the spirit of this community, I understand that I
can be administratively re-assigned to another residence hall space outside of the
gender inclusive area. The housing contract will remain binding in cases where
students are removed from the gender inclusive area.
