When you make cleaning assignments, only those who have failed will be asked to complete a re-check during the next office hours and may be assessed a $5 fee. If an apartment fails several times during the semester, the students will be charged for a full white glove cleaning at the end of the semester.
When assignments are not made, all apartment residents are accountable to correct the work. We encourage reviewing assignments during apartment counsels.
