Maintenance and Housekeeping
The University provides an “in-house” maintenance and custodial staff. Working closely with the housing office, the facilities department conducts safety inspections, performs general maintenance functions and responds to work orders submitted by the housing office. Technicians are on call after business hours and on weekends to respond to emergency repair and other maintenance requests. Custodians regularly clean the public areas in and around all residential buildings.
For any concerns with your room, please submit a “Work Order” on Eagle Links. Go to Eaglelinks > Residence Life > Enter a Work Order
If it is an emergency, please contact the front desk staff or resident assistant for assistance.
