Underclass Residence Halls

Alcohol is not permitted at any time in the following residence halls: Boland, Corr, Holy Cross Center, O'Hara Hall, O'Hara Village, Pilgrim Heights Village and Villa Theresa Hall


Upper-Class Residence Halls

Alcohol is permitted in Colonial & Commonwealth Courts, Pilgrim Heights & Bogan Hall suites if the following criteria are met:

  • A bedroom is permitted to have alcohol in the bedroom if 50% of the occupants are 21 or over.
  • Students who are not 21 are not able to consume alcohol at any time despite permission that is granted to individual room occupants
  • A house/suite is permitted to have alcohol in the common area when sixty percent (60%) of the residents of a house/suite are 21 years of age or older and all members of the house/suite attend the required trainings as published by Residence Life at the start of each academic year. 

Common Area Alcohol Use Adjustment

When a house/suite has met the necessary criteria, alcohol can be consumed in all common areas including the lounge and kitchen. When an adjustment occurs, a house/suite loses this ability. The length of time which a house/suite can be adjusted can vary. Typically, an adjustment period is a minimum of four weeks but can last up to the remainder of the academic year. The length of an adjustment period is at the discretion of the Residence Life office.
