Yes, Wilson students are permitted to have guests, both student and non-student, within the parameters set by the residence hall community agreement. Each residential community has the right to discuss and determine appropriate times for guest visitation and restrict visitation accordingly. At maximum, students may entertain guests (resident/non-resident, male/female) in the residence hall any day of the week within the limit that any guest may stay no more than three (3) nights and four (4) days in any 7-day period. Guests are only permitted in individual rooms at the permission of both roommates. Overnight accommodations for guests may be arranged through the Office of Conferences and Special Events. All guests, both male and female, must be escorted at all times. As stated above, the hall vote governs the specifics of visitation for both genders. The guest and visitation policy applies to all guests, including parents and other Wilson students. By nature, the Single Parent Scholar floors have added security concerns because of the presence of young children. These residents also have a unique need in that they may need to have a childcare provider present with their child while they, the student, are not present in the hall. With that in mind, the following guidelines have been established for the comfort and safety of all SPS members: The floor’s RA must be notified of any SPS mom’s intention to have a childcare provider in the hall in advance of the individual’s arrival on the floor. Each SPS floor must meet within the first week of class to discuss and establish community standards in regards to childcare within the floor, appropriate community notification, and community tolerance limits. All SPS students are expected to follow the entire guest and visitation policy. Childcare providers within the hall are expected to be with their charges at all times and should not be unescorted in public spaces nor should they be given keys or elevator codes without permission from the director of residence life. Any concerns regarding the community standards or their interpretation must be addressed with the floor community.
