Residents will be held accountable, monetarily and/or through disciplinary action, for any damages they cause in their individual rooms or in any common area. This includes any damages caused by their guests. It is not the practice of the OCSH staff to penalize residents with damage charges, but rather to recoup the actual cost of eventual repair or replacement of the damaged item(s). In cases where responsibility has not been determined, the residents closest to the specific area of damage may be equally billed. There is not a charge for routine maintenance or work orders that are placed or for normal wear and tear situations. For more specific information, residents should speak with the Housing Manager.
