**CAMP POLICIES****Safety & Security** • Illegal stuff is out—alcohol, drugs, fireworks, explosives, weapons, etc. • Hazing and bullying are out (duh) • Messing with fire alarms, elevators, etc., or pranking 9/11 will cost you a ton of money • You break it, you buy it • Keep your doors shut and locked, and do not leave personal property unattended in a classroom or lounge • Report any problems/concerns IMMEDIATELY to a staff member—our job is to fix things • Work to make sure that our environment is comfortable for everyone • Dorm check @ 11p, must be in dorm by 10p
“More Rules” • Keep noise to a reasonable level—headphones? • Do not prop open doors • If you lose a meal card ($5+), lanyard ($5+), or key ($95+), your parents will not be happy • You MUST keep your door open if someone other than you or your roommate is in the room • Pick up after yourself, especially in the common areas • Fire hot, fire burn—no candles, halogen lamps, Weber grills, ,etc. • You cannot leave campus without permission—EVEN IF you have your parents’ permission, you must “check out” with a staffperson first • There is no official “lights out,” but we reserve the right to implement one if necessary • Poker is not mandatory, but is strongly recommended
Things to Know #1 • Unless informed otherwise, all meals are in the Christensen Center’s cafeteria on the 2nd floor • Jimmy John’s is considered to be “off campus” • If you need to leave for any reason, you MUST check out with a staff member • Cell phone reception is the basement of Foss sucks—make sure your parents know this, so they do not assume you have disappeared when you do not answer right away • You can find evidence, facebook, and torrenting on teh internets. You were given a password at registration. Please don’t lose it
Things to Know #2 • Be on time. Camp cannot run if you are not on time—feel like inconveniencing 85 people?
