6. **CAMP POLICIES** **Safety & Security** Illegal stuff is out—alcohol, drugs, fireworks, explosives, weapons, etc. Hazing and bullying are out (duh) Messing with fire alarms, elevators, etc., or pranking 9/11 will cost you a ton of money You break it, you buy it Keep your doors shut and locked, and do not leave personal property unattended in a classroom or lounge Report any problems/concerns IMMEDIATELY to a staff member—our job is to fix things Work to make sure that our environment is comfortable for everyone Dorm check @ 11p, must be in dorm by 10p

7. “More Rules” Keep noise to a reasonable level—headphones? Do not prop open doors If you lose a meal card ($5+), lanyard ($5+), or key ($95+), your parents will not be happy You MUST keep your door open if someone other than you or your roommate is in the room Pick up after yourself, especially in the common areas Fire hot, fire burn—no candles, halogen lamps, Weber grills,,etc. You cannot leave campus without permission—EVEN IF you have your parents’ permission, you must “check out” with a staffperson first There is no official “lights out,” but we reserve the right to implement one if necessary Poker is not mandatory, but is strongly recommended

8. Things to Know #1 Unless informed otherwise, all meals are in the Christensen Center’s cafeteria on the 2 nd floor Jimmy John’s is considered to be “off campus” If you need to leave for any reason, you MUST check out with a staff member Cell phone reception is the basement of Foss sucks—make sure your parents know this, so they do not assume you have disappeared when you do not answer right away You can find evidence, facebook, and torrenting on teh internets. You were given a password at registration. Please don’t lose it

9. Things to Know #2 Be on time. Camp cannot run if you are not on time— feel like inconveniencing 85 people? Don’t do it.
