I live in Evergreen Hall. What are my options?
Evergreen Hall residents have the option to either move to a different space in Cougar Village, Evergreen, or the upperclass wing of a residence hall or homestead. “Homesteading” in Evergreen Hall allows Evergreen residents to stay in their same type of space for next year.
If current Evergreen residents would like to move from their current type of space they can either participate in Open Space Selection or participate with someone else who is homesteading as a “homesteader roommate.”
