-- Posted by SgtPatches at 10:37 pm on July 19, 2008 In a year, I will be attending college. However, the college I will likely go to requires that fish live on-campus in a residence hall. My question is, are residence halls typically strict when it comes to rules? Especially rules concerning guests. -- Posted by Relativity at 10:38 pm on July 19, 2008 Yes. -- Posted by JohnQ at 10:39 pm on July 19, 2008 If it lives in the hall how would it survive? Surely they need water? -- Posted by PotPom at 10:39 pm on July 19, 2008 mine wasn't. if they don't knwo then its all good. -- Posted by BananaPancake at 10:39 pm on July 19, 2008 Every place is different. Most of them have policies where as long as you clear it with the manager on your floor of the residence hall ahead of time, then it's ok. Some of them have limits though as far as if the guest is of the opposite sex, from a different school, etc. You really would need to ask your school what their policy on it is. -- Posted by RockerTori106 at 10:40 pm on July 19, 2008 It really does depend on the college. -- Posted by Vintorez at 10:41 pm on July 19, 2008 Mostly, yes. Depends on your RA though, some are more lenient than others. -- Posted by TigressaLynnMae at 6:39 pm on July 20, 2008 My question is, are residence halls typically strict when it comes to rules? Especially rules concerning guests. Yes. If the rules say, "No members of the opposite sex after so and so time", they mean that. The same for, "No members under the age of *insert age here*, nor older than *insert another age here". I'd look into the rules. Some dorms don't even allow guests, without Housing Admin knowing of it. Some don't allow you to have ANYONE spend the night. It depends on the school.
