Hello -

We hope you are settling into your new home on south campus! Below you'll find information pertinent to living in your new community and reaching out with facilities concerns.

LIGHTS

Our lights are set to auto-on and auto-off meaning that upon picking up motion or sound, they will turn on and then after a period of neither input they will turn off. 

In your bedrooms, they are set to manual-on and manual-off. What this means is that once you turn the light on, by pressing the switch, it will remain on as long as it senses sound or motion. If it does not, then the light will turn off. However, you must also press the switch again to turn the light off - as you should at night to avoid lights coming on while you are in bed.

If for some reason your lights are not functioning as described, please let your community staff know or contact us at housing@wfu.edu. 

OUTLETS

The outlets throughout our buildings are tamper-resistant. These outlets help prevent electrical injury which results from attempting to insert foreign objects into the outlet.

To plug items in, please insert the plug as straight as possible. If at any point you have problems with your outlets please contact Facilities and Campus Services by calling 336-758-HALL (4255).

RESOURCE HUB

To resolve any questions you might have or report issues in your community, we have a webpage dedicated to quick links across a variety of residential and facility concerns. It's available to you 24/7 at https://rlh.wfu.edu/help-home/.

We can be reached at 336-758-5185 or housing@wfu.edu with any remaining questions. We're glad you're here and beginning to make Wake Forest your home.
