Can I stay on campus during Senior Week?

All seniors, regardless of whether or not they will be participating in events, will need to move out on Friday, May 10. Seniors who are participating in Senior Week activities will return to campus on Monday, May 13. Seniors should start to prepare for this move-out by starting to take things home during Spring and Easter break. Seniors should pack lightly for Senior Week – it is only a few days, so we suggest items such as clothes, bedding, toiletries, and food/snacks as well as cooking necessities.Â
