Single Student Housing Handbook

(updated 2.14.23)

Welcome to Washington State University and your new home in University Apartments. The staff of the Housing Services works to provide you with a comfortable, safe and convenient apartment while attending the University.

We want you to have as much freedom as possible in your personal life, while assuring a satisfactory and comfortable life for the entire community. To ensure this, we ask that you keep in mind the rights and privileges of other residents. Since this is a long-term housing community providing homes for many students for years to come, the University must see that its interests concerning the property and reputation of its units are respected. The operation and management of the community depends on the cooperation of its residents. Because the University wants to maintain good will and keep its relationship with residents at the highest possible level, we welcome ideas directed toward the betterment of the community.

Communication plays an important role in establishing positive relationships. Therefore, we will keep you informed on all matters affecting the welfare of the community. When we find it necessary to make changes in policy or regulations, we will notify you. Ordinarily, we will post notices on bulletin boards and in public areas. Depending on the nature of the subject matter, we may deliver or mail letters to individual residents or use the online student portal.

APARTMENT COORDINATORS

To better facilitate communication and programming, Housing Services staffs each apartment complex with an Apartment Coordinator. The coordinator acts as liaison between the residents and Housing Services in matters affecting the livability and use of the facilities and is responsible for the general welfare of the residents living in the complex. The coordinator assists the residents and Housing Services in preventing unauthorized, illegal, or improper use of the facilities.

Coordinators are also responsible for planning a variety of community building events throughout the year, such as barbecues, holiday celebrations, and other activities depending on the needs of the community.

Residents of university-operated apartments should feel free at any time to contact the Apartment Coordinator living in their area with concerns and questions regarding physical facilities, community living, and student services offered by WSU.

If you have any questions after reading this booklet, please call or visit your Apartment Coordinator:

If the Coordinator is unable to help you and your neighbor reach a solution, the matter will be taken to the Associate Director of Housing and/or their designee for further action. Noise problems of an unresolved or severe nature may result in the termination of the apartment agreement.

PARKING PERMITS AND/OR LOTS

For current information, please visit the Apartment Parking section on our  web site

Parking space normally exists near your apartment complex for one car; however, availability is not guaranteed. In some complexes space is available for a second car, small trailers, boats, and small RV's in overflow parking areas.

You must apply for parking permits from Transportation Services each fall and throughout the year on an as-needed basis. Permits are electronic and are valid for one academic year. To receive a parking permit, you must provide your license plate information on your transportation account (transportation.wsu.edu). Guest permits can also be obtained by residents online.  . The apartment permit does not replace the commuter permit required for on-campus parking and authorizes parking only in the lot or lots serving the complex where you live.  Renewal permits must be obtained each year prior to the first day of classes in the fall semester .

Mopeds, motorcycles, cars, and other vehicles without appropriate permits  parked in residential lots will be ticketed by Transportation Services. This serves to relieve congestion by discouraging the parking of unauthorized vehicles.

Visitor parking permits for apartment area lots are available on your transportation account listed as “Apartment Guest” and are valid for up to 3 days.

WEAPONS/EXPLOSIVES

For information about weapons and explosives, please review the Weapons section of the  Single Student Apartment Agreement .

SECTION II - CARE AND MAINTENANCE FOR APARTMENTS

ATTACHMENTS (SHELVES, ETC.)

No additional material/equipment may be attached to the interior or exterior of walls, ceilings or floors without the written approval from the Associate Director of Housing and/or their designee. If approval is given, the material/equipment must be left with the unit at the termination of occupancy. The purpose of this practice is to avoid the installation and removal of items that would eventually cause an unsightly appearance to the walls, ceilings, and floors.

BALCONIES, DECKS, AND PATIOS

You may not barbecue on decks or balconies or store propane or propane operated grills. For more information about balconies, decks and patios, please review the Property/Liability section of the  Single Student Apartment Agreement.

Motorcycles or other gasoline-powered vehicles cannot be stored on or near these areas. Residents are asked to refrain from using decks as storage areas, or from attaching clotheslines to exterior walls, posts, or frames.

Balconies and decks are not designed to support the weight of hot tubs or Jacuzzis, and should not be used for such purposes.

Balconies and decks are not designed to support hammocks and are as such prohibited from being attached to them.

CARPET AND FLOOR CARE

Carpets should be vacuumed once weekly or more often, depending on spillage and the amount of soil carried in. Spillage should be cleaned up immediately to prevent staining. Water should not be allowed to stand on either carpets or vinyl floors. This will damage the floor covering, and repair costs will be charged to the residents. The vinyl floor should be cleaned and mopped regularly but does not require waxing. We advise against the use of acrylic floor finishers and waxes containing solvents, as improper use of these products causes serious maintenance problems.

COUNTERTOPS

Do not place hot cooking utensils onto the counter tops and do not use the counter tops as cutting surfaces. You will be charged for any damage caused by misuse.

DRAPES / ELECTRIC RANGES

For information about cleaning drapes and electric ranges, please review the Cleaning section of the Single Student Apartment  Termination and Checkout Information  page.

The surface of upholstered furnishings should be vacuumed whenever dusty or soiled. Clean under cushions, as well. Tables, desks, and chairs should be washed down if badly soiled, sticky, etc., in addition to regular dusting and buffing.

GARBAGE DISPOSAL OPERATION

Remove the drain stopper, turn the tap to a medium flow of cold water and keep it running. Scrape food wastes, table scraps, vegetable peelings, rinds, seeds, or coffee grounds into the sink. Flip the switch to "on" and the garbage will go through the disposal. Fibrous materials should be cut or broken up before being added. Large bones, husks, cobs, and fruit pits can clog the disposal, and should be placed, instead, in the garbage along with bottles, cans, plastic, shells and feathers.

Before turning the toggle switch off, let water and disposal both run for about 15 seconds after shredding stops.

Never put lye or other chemical drain pipe cleaners into the disposal since they will cause serious corrosion.

Overload Reset Button. Your disposal motor is protected by an overload thermostat, which automatically shuts off the motor when it overheats. If this happens, wait at least one minute. Then push the red reset button at the bottom of your unit until it stays in an up position. Should your disposal jam, turn the wall switch to "off" and make sure no foreign objects have fallen into the disposal. Flip the disposal wall switch on and off several times. If this fails, contact Auxiliary Facilities Services  at 509-335-1541.

MAINTENANCE

If your apartment requires maintenance, you may call Auxiliary Facilities Services (509-335-1541). Excessive maintenance is eventually reflected in the licensing fee; therefore, you are requested to reduce the number of maintenance calls. You will be charged for any repairs that are made due to your neglect or failure to follow directions or exercise normal care.

REFRIGERATORS

Frost accumulates on the freezer compartment and should be removed when it becomes 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Do not use a sharp-pointed or sharp-edged instrument, since this may dam­age the freezer liner, and you will be charged the cost of replacement. Freezers may be defrosted by turning the temperature control to defrost, removing all food items from the refrigerator and freezer compartments and either allowing the unit to sit overnight or placing pans of hot water in the freezer to hasten the defrost process. Once the frost has melted into the chiller tray, dump the water and clean the tray. Wipe down the inside and outside of the freezer and refrigerator with hot soapy water.

SHOWERS, SINKS, TOILETS AND TUBS

Toilets, sinks, and tubs should be cleaned regularly to prevent hard water buildup, yellow rings and mildew. To clean, use a product that is specifically designed to clean bathroom surfaces, hard water and mildew. There are several over the counter products that can be found in the cleaning isles of stores that will work. Please follow all product label directions and precautions when using any chemical for cleaning. Scouring pads made of nylon, saran, or polyethylene not containing abrasives may be used. Do not pour grease or caustic chemicals down drains or allow hair or other refuse to clog the sink. Garbage, paper, or rags placed in the toilet bowl will cause stoppage of sewer lines under the building and sewage water to back up throughout the building.

If it is necessary to provide service because of your negligence, misuse, or improper care of equipment, you must bear the cost. This includes clogged toilets and drains.

SNOW AND ICE REMOVAL

You are responsible for removing snow and ice from the steps of your unit to assure safety. Snow shovels are available to you either in your unit or in the nearby laundry room. University maintenance personnel will remove snow from the roofs of units as necessary.

It is expected that residents will cooperate by moving cars from parking lots and streets, upon request, for a designated period of time for snow removal.

WSU is committed to the health and wellbeing of our campus and environment. One area that WSU Pullman is working on to improve the environment is stormwater pollution prevention. To learn more about what you can do please read http://ehs.wsu.edu/ph/StormwaterManagement.html .

Residents are not permitted to paint their apartments. Walls in all University apartments are painted by Housing Services staff on a scheduled basis. If you feel that the walls in your apartment merit attention, please call the Auxiliary Facilities Services.

Please do not use tape of any kind to fasten pictures to the walls. Picture hooks or small brads may be used, but should be left in place when you move.

Painted walls should be washed with mild detergent and a sponge. Pay attention to those areas prone to excessive smudges or mars such as areas around light switches, behind furniture, and children's rooms. Do not use strong household cleaners or abrasives on painted surfaces.

WINDOWS AND STORM DOORS

Broken windows will be replaced and the charge will be assessed against the occupants of the apartment in which the window was repaired. The only exceptions are breakage due to natural causes such as storms or earthquakes.

Wash windows with a mild solution of sudsy ammonia in water.

SECTION III - RECREATION COMMUNITY CENTER

The recreation centers are located at the south end of campus at Chinook Village and Yakama Village. Recreation centers extend the living area for residents of the University apartment complexes. 

These areas provide:

• quiet study areas away from the University apartments,

WSU students reflect on 'freaky' situation

Jan. 2—Students bombarded social media after news broke that Washington State University graduate student Bryan Christopher Kohberger has been arrested in connection to the University of Idaho murders.

Some of those students mention Kohberger was their teaching assistant.

"I honestly didn't go to the class that much, but I remember he still went to class after the murders," said Kaya Placido, who took a criminology class with Kohberger. "It's so weird to know that I've been in the same room as him."

Placido added that he would "participate" in talking about the UI murder case, but she doesn't fully remember his reactions to students' comments.

Other students, who preferred to remain anonymous, mentioned that having him as a teaching assistant now seems "freaky" after knowing he would be in class, go into office hours and grade assignments. Students said Kohberger continued to participate in classes following the murders Nov. 13.

The Moscow Police Department announced Friday that Kohberger, a 28-year-old Ph.D. student and teaching assistant in the Department of Criminal Justice and Criminology at WSU, has been arrested in connection with the murders of Xana Kernodle, Ethan Chapin, Kaylee Goncalves and Madison Mogen.

Dominic Gannam, a third-year student at WSU, said that although he didn't know Kohberger, he's "relieved" knowing there's been an arrest made.

"I feel safer knowing that he's been found," Gannam said. "But it's creepy to think about him walking on campus every day and that I could have possibly passed him on my way to class. For the past month, everybody's been on edge because there was no information."

He added that WSU has done a "poor job" of handling the situation after the murders took place in Moscow and hopes there will be more options of security and safety next semester.

"WSU sent out an email to all students saying there was no threat to Pullman and classes continued in person for the rest of the semester," Gannam said. "All along the (alleged) killer was on WSU's campus without anyone knowing."

Kohberger plans to waive an extradition hearing so he can be quickly brought to Idaho to face murder charges, his defense attorney said Saturday.

We will work to build strength, flexibility, mindfulness, and complete our yoga practice feeling resilient and refreshed. Send an email to APAC if you would like to be invited to the occurring meeting series.

Parker Dewey Micro-Internships

Micro-Internships help companies get immediate support while identifying and evaluating candidates for future hiring needs. The Parker Dewey Micro-Internships program connects students to a diverse network of companies and organizations to take on professional, paid, short-term assignments year-round. As a complement to existing college recruiting efforts and semester-long internships, Micro-Internships provide opportunities for students to demonstrate their skills, develop relationships, and explore career paths, while providing real value to businesses.

Micro-Internships allow students to apply to short-term, professional assignments, while also allowing companies to identify and assess highly motivated students and recent graduates, should there be available full-time opportunities. Unlike traditional internships, these paid opportunities typically range from 5 to 40 hours of work, can be completed year-round, and help students develop career skills while getting paid.

Companies have recognized that major and GPA alone do not predict career success or fit. Unlike assessments, video interviews, algorithms, and other applicant screening technology, Micro-Internships improve hiring effectiveness by allowing companies to authentically evaluate a student’s skills and work ethic upfront. Both employers and candidates win by having an opportunity to do actual work with one another before committing to an internship or full-time role.

Detroit Tigers claim Easton Lucas, a left-handed reliever, off waivers from Athletics

PHOENIX — The Detroit Tigers swapped a right-handed reliever in the organization for a month for a brand-new left-handed reliever.

The Tigers claimed left-handed reliever Easton Lucas off waivers Saturday from the Oakland Athletics. Right-handed reliever Ty Adcock , previously claimed off waivers in mid-April from the Seattle Mariners, was designated for assignment by the Tigers to create room for Lucas on the 40-man roster.

Lucas has been optioned to Triple-A Toledo.

The 27-year-old has pitched for Triple-A Las Vegas and the Athletics throughout the 2024 season. He has a 2.87 ERA with eight walks and 13 strikeouts across 15⅔ innings in 11 Triple-A games, but he was shelled for six runs across 3⅔ innings in three games coming out of the Athletics' bullpen.

Lucas, who has three minor-league options, has struggled throughout his brief stints in the big leagues, a span of 10⅓ innings in nine relief appearances over parts of two seasons. He has a 10.45 ERA — 12 earned runs — with seven walks and 13 strikeouts.

In 2024, Lucas threw five pitches: averaging 94.2 mph with his four-seam fastball, 90.5 mph with his cutter, 83.1 mph with his slider, 86.8 mph with his changeup and 93.9 mph with his sinker. His four-seamer has performed well this season.

The Tigers are his fourth organization as a professional.

Lucas was drafted out of Pepperdine by the Miami Marlins in the 14th round of the 2019 draft, traded from the Marlins to the Baltimore Orioles for veteran infielder Jonathan Villar in December 2019 and then traded from the Orioles to the Athletics for right-handed reliever Shintaro Fujinami , an erratic flamethrower, in July 2023.

STOCK WATCH: Three pitchers among best in big leagues, but big bats aren't hitting

As for Adock, the Tigers can outright him to Triple-A Toledo — thus keeping him in the organization — if he clears waivers, but for that to happen, the other 29 teams must decline to pick him up.

Adcock has a 9.00 ERA with three walks and nine strikeouts across six innings in Triple-A Toledo.

Building Preferences in 25Live

25live building preferences by organization & partition.

Room preferences are determined by Organization. Building partitions include one or more specific GUC spaces; use the Partition links in the right sidebar to view spaces within a partition. The Room Optimizer will attempt to schedule Priority 1 spaces first, then move to Priority 2 and 3. Priority 4 spaces are used when no other space is available.

Select "+" to open your Academic Organization. A partition must be listed to be scheduled; it is better to receive an undesireable room that can be traded vs. no room. We recommend that all partitions be listed for your organization.
