(7) Room rental agreements end if either you or the house director does not fill in the contract form correctly, with exact dates, specific description of the living space, all necessary signatures, and so on. If your parent has not signed the contract, that fact alone does not end the agreement, as long as everything else is in order. (8) Room rental agreements end if the house you live in is sublet, or if the management of the house changes while you're there under contract. If this happens, you should notify the Housing Division that you want to end the agreement. They have to give you written permission before you can move. (9) Room rental agreements may be ended if the Housing Division decides that it is not in the best interests of the University to let them go on.

8. About summer supervision 9. About additional regulations

Fraternity houses may be open to undergraduates during the Summer Session only if in charge of some mature and responsible person approved by the Dean of Men. If a fraternity house accommodates students other than its own members during the Summer Session, it is supposed to observe all the regulations of the Housing Division on approved homes. Sorority houses may be open to undergraduate women during the Summer Session only if the Dean of Women grants permission. Like fraternities, sororities housing students other than its own members during the Summer Session are subject to the Housing Division regulations on approved housing.

As a student, you are responsible for paying attention to all the regulations you find in the "Code of Student Affairs" and all the rules and regulations announced by the various University offices — especially for those put out by the Dean of Women and the Dean of Men. You should become familiar with all of these rules.

10. About fooperatives

Stadium Terrace Playground Area

The University assumes no liability, financial or otherwise, for claims coming from cooperative housing units, but it does recognize student cooperatives to this extent: Fifteen or more students may organize a cooperative unit, and ask for approval from the Housing Division if they (1) choose properly certified people as members, (2) secure a responsible person or organization as their sponsor, (3) select an acceptable house director, (4) agree to share upkeep, cost, and labor equally and without profit, and (5) pay attention to general University regulations. If you are a woman student and want to apply for a room in a University-owned cooperative for women, you should secure application blanks at the Housing Division offices on and after May 1, and December 1. You should then fill out the forms in duplicate and return them to the Housing Division.
