WELCOME TO EASTERN FLORIDA STATE COLLEGE STUDENT HOUSING
Vision and Mission
The Eastern Florida State College Student Housing Corporation ( the “ Student Housing Corporation ”), a direct support organization of Eastern Florida State College ( the “ College ”), is committed to creating a supportive , safe , and engaging student housing community on campus that fosters personal development and academic success . The Student Housing Corporation seeks to provide students a caring community that is both intellectually and socially enriching , with an emphasis on student selfgovernance and a corresponding expectation of student accountability .
Student Accountability
Living on campus is a privilege , not a right . Students are expected to behave in a responsible manner and observe the established rules and regulations of the College and Student Housing Corporation , as well as local , state , and federal laws . The College reserves the right to make additional rules and regulations as may be necessary for the safety , care , and cleanliness of the facility and / or for the preservation of order . Students who fail to meet the College ’ s expectations will be held accountable .
Family Education Rights and Privacy Act ( FERPA )
We understand this is an exciting time in students ’ lives and parents / guardians want to ensure the best experience possible for their children . The College is limited , however , in the scope of information it is permitted to share with parents / guardians , and others , due to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act ( FERPA ) of 1974 . For any representative of the Student Housing Corporation or College to speak with a parent / guardian about their child , a student must have a completed FERPA release form ( FERPA Authorization to Release Information ) on file with the College .
