The UR housing application allows you to select “prefer substance-free housing” as an option when it comes to what housing you get. From what I can find online, there is only a women’s substance-free dorm of any kind. Is this still the case? What exactly would this option get you if you selected it?
For freshmen men, there is no substance-free housing (students here are working on it though). If you select it, you’ll still be assigned to the regular dorms.
For upperclassmen (new this year) and freshmen women, individuals who select this option may be placed in the substance-free hall of a certain dorm (it depends on space available). If you are in the substance-free community, you promise not to drink alcohol or use any other substances like all the other students on your hall.
The freshmen women’s substance-free community is in Lora Robins Court. The upperclassmen substance-free community next year is in Grey Court.
