Services
The PepsiCo Recreation Center (309-794-7705), with a weight room, exercise equipment and indoor track, is open limited hours in summer.
The library has several computer workstations available for use.
The Brew by the Slough, with a variety of coffee and specialty beverages is open. It also serves pastries, sandwiches and salads.
Mail is not delivered to individual campus buildings. Because the campus mailroom closes at 3 p.m. Monday-Friday in the summer, we recommend that your personal mail be sent to your employer. If this is not feasible, please contact the Office of Residential Life.
Free parking is available nearby for those with summer housing assignments.
There is a large communal kitchen available for all summer residents to share in the basement of Erickson. Residents storing food in the communal kitchen do so at their own risk and are encouraged to clearly label all of their items.
Community living policies
We expect residents to be considerate of you roommates and neighbors. Quiet hours are observed each weekday after 10 p.m. and on weekends after midnight.
Residents must ask for the approval of roommates before inviting an overnight guest. Guest stays are limited to 48 consecutive hours.
Smoking, vaping and tobacco use are strictly prohibited inside the building.
Fire and safety regulations prohibit the use of some types of appliances. As a general guideline, appliances rated over 6 amps (700 watts), with the exception of computers, are not permitted. Small toasters and toaster ovens, and cookware with exposed heating elements are restricted to use in the kitchen.
You will be asked to complete a room inventory when you check in. You will be held responsible for any damages you cause and your employer may be notified of any unjustifiable damages. Residents of each room will be held mutually accountable for all unassignable damages that occur. These charges will be divided among residents.
Cleaning
You are expected to keep the room clean throughout your stay, and to clean up after yourself when you use the communal kitchens and other shared areas of the building.
Work orders
Work orders can be submitted online. Please include detailed information about the request and a contact phone number. Work orders can be submitted for a variety of issues including appliances and lighting, as well as any problems that may occur with insects or other pests. As much as we hope everything will remain working properly, repairs occasionally arise.
Laundry facilities
Laundry machines are located in each building. The cost is $1.25 per wash and $1.25 per dry.
