Residence Life is piloting quiet floors this semester on floors three and four of Maple Hall and floor six of North Hall. Residents on those floors agreed to 24-hour quiet hours, meaning conversations and music should not be heard outside a room at any time.

The pilot was proposed by the Residence Hall Association after a survey found that 37 percent of residents wanted a quieter place to live. Students who want a quiet floor in the spring can sign up through the housing portal starting October 15.
