Area Desks
Area Desks provide staff support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Located at Allison, Sargent, Schapiro, and Willard, the desks are a hub of activity for residential students. Residents can obtain temporary access cards (see Access & Keys) if they are locked out, report an access issue with their Wildcard or electronic lock, complete room changes and express check-outs, rent various amenities (vacuums, sports equipment, etc.), and ask general questions to a Residential Services employee or Community Service Officer (CSO). The person working the desk can also connect you to personnel serving on duty for emergency situations
