Evidence of this insurance shall be attached to and made part of this agreement prior to execution. No agreement shall be created until it is executed by both parties.
Conference Services expressly excludes and disclaims all responsibility for damages or injury to property and/or persons arising out of use of residential facilities under this agreement, except as proximately caused by the negligent acts or omissions of Conference Services, its employees, agents, or representatives. The Client assumes all risk of loss or damage to the personal property of the Client, its officers, agents, representatives, employees, invitees, and camp/conference participants placed upon the premises in connection with the Client’s use of the premises under this agreement.

We have halls available all over campus but our inventory changes from year-to-year.
To view building types that are on campus, visit: Residence Halls.
Each hall will generally contain ground floor lobbies and reception areas, kitchenettes, study space, TV and game lounges, laundry facilities, and coin-operated vending machines. Each room comes with a desk, chair, dresser, bed, mattress, and mini-fridge.
Conference Services is staffed by interns and student staff members. They are responsible for all administrative tasks, customer service, communication, and safety/security that occurs in the halls.
Each camp/conference is paired with their own Conference Coordinator who is available to help coordinate all your housing needs. We pride ourselves on our ability to bring exceptional customer service to all of our guests.
The front desk of each residence hall is staffed 24/7. If you have any questions or concerns, please stop by, and we will be able to assist you. From 7:00am – 11:00pm each day, there will be a Conference Assistant (CA) available in the hall office. From 11:00pm – 7:00am each night, there will be a Night Staff (NS) available. Conference Coordinators are on call, 24/7. In case of emergency, CA/NS will contact them.
