- Gender Inclusive Housing - Provides a physically and emotionally safe space for the LGBTQ+ population at EMU. This includes all those exploring gender transition, those living into non-binaried genders, and those who embrace the non-cis-hetero-normative identities that some in our student body carry. Gender inclusive housing allows for students to live together regardless of gender assigned at birth in an environment that is explicitly affirming of their dignity and belonging on our campus. This community will provide a supportive space for students to explore and learn about their own identity, while also building lasting relationships with others.
Anyone 18 and over may apply as long as they are explicitly comfortable living with people of ALL genders. This space is not intended as shared living for romantic couples, and living in the same space on any hall on campus with a significant other is strongly discouraged.
*EMU reserves the right to take prior student life and residence life violations into consideration when reviewing applications and proposals for Cedarwood Living Communities, Hillside Suites, Parkwoods Apartments, and Group Houses.

Each resident must check out in person with the CA in the event of a room change or withdrawal, as well as at the end of the year. The room is inspected according to the check-in form and damages assessed. Any charges are placed on the student’s account. The resident must sign the room clearance form and turn in the room key. Failure to follow the checkout procedure may result in an improper checkout fee. Students are requested to make an appointment in advance with the CA for checkout. Students need to be checked out by 12:00pm on the Saturday afteday after the last day of final exams, or within 24 hours of their last final exam, whichever comes first.
Changing Rooms
Student-initiated room changes are not generally made during the first two weeks of any semester, except for cases of emergency or safety. The residence director, in consultation with the director for residence life, must approve room changes before any move is made. Facilitated roommate dialogue and/or conflict mediation is usually the first step in working with any roommate or suite mate conflict. Dialogue and/or mediation may result in a renewed commitment to live together. However, in some cases there are irreconcilable differences that necessitate a room change. If, after dialogue/mediation, a room change is necessary, the room change may occur.
