All members of the Allegheny College community are expected to act in a manner that demonstrates consideration and regard for the rights, privileges, and sensitivities of others. This is especially true for those individuals who contract for and occupy the College's residential facilities. Upon signing a housing contract or accepting the terms of the contract online, the student agrees to respect other residents' desires for a reasonable degree of privacy and sufficient quiet, as well as to show consideration for the property of fellow residents and the College. Specific regulations and policies related to residence facilities are clearly outlined in the housing contract and in The Compass, Allegheny's student handbook.
