A Message From the Office of Residential Life and Housing
|
|
At Thomas College we understand that the first year away from
home is often the most difficult for college students. We
attempt to help our residential students with this transition in various
ways. However, parents often need help through the
transition from full house to empty (or emptier) nest.
Below
you will find links to some articles specific to residential
life that we feel are helpful in
preparing both students and families for what to expect in
the upcoming year.
Please keep in mind that these articles were not written by
our Residential Life Staff and some of the policies and
procedures specific to Thomas College may be slightly
different. Always refer to your Thomas College Student
Handbook or the Office of Residential Life and Housing for
answers to your questions about policies and procedures.

| Have you
checked your homeowners insurance to see if your student is
covered against theft, fire or other damage while living in
the Residence Halls? Accidents and situations happen - be
sure that you and your student are covered. |

| Do you know
when the scheduled breaks are and when housing opens and
closes for each break? Be sure to check the
Residential Life Calendar
often for updates and information regarding halls closing
and re-opening so you can plan accordingly! Contact:
