Returning to Campus - Checking for Damage

As individuals return it is important to review your spaces from top to bottom for any damage, concerns, or loss of items. Whether your organization has an on-campus or off-campus location, or if you store your chapter belongings in a storage facility, still check your spaces.

Specifically check for any of the following situations:

  • Water damage to your space or items
  • Mold or other discoloration to yoru spaces or items
  • Loss of items
  • Damage to items or spaces
  • All locks are working properly on doors and windows
  • Any signs of forced entry into spaces
If you notice any concerns make sure to share the concerns with either of these offices:
  • Greek Life: greeklife@case.edu for any concerns you would like to share with us. 
  • University Housing: Submit a maintenance request through myHousing for issues within the university residential buildings (mold, water damage, etc.)
  • Public Safety: Report any thefts or missing items.
  • Chapter advisors: Share any and all concerns to keep them aware.

Off Campus Living

Students who live off-campus become part of our surrounding neighborhoods. These are neighborhoods filled with individuals and families who take great pride and care in their communities, just as you do in your family’s home away from Case Western Reserve University. The residents have children, jobs, responsibilities and, importantly, a right to feel secure and comfortable in and outside of their homes. We must honor that right and, quite simply, strive to be good, caring and respectful neighbors.

In recent months, the university has received a growing number of complaints and concerns from neighborhood residents regarding inconsiderate behavior by undergraduate students who live in off-campus housing. We have received multiple reports of loud music and parties, trash on lawns and rudeness when interacting with residents. 

These reports are disappointing and do not reflect or uphold the values
of our campus community.

As Case Western Reserve students, you represent the university and are expected to behave accordingly. Further, the Student Code of Conduct applies to both on- and off-campus conduct. To that end, students who live in off-campus housing may face disciplinary action for violations that occur off-campus.

In particular, please note:

  • Effective immediately, if CWRU Police respond to a report of a noise violation, disorderly conduct or other disruptive behavior at an off-campus property rented by CWRU students, the offending student(s) will receive a warning. If the conduct persists and CWRU Police respond to the property a second time, the offending student(s) will be cited.
  • Students who are in violation of noise ordinances or other laws may be required to participate in community service or face other disciplinary action by the university, in addition to, or in lieu of, a citation.
