WMA recognizes the wish of students to visit each other in the dormitories. Accordingly, visitation is allowed under the following conditions: • Dorm visitation takes place on Friday and Saturday evenings from 8 - 10 p.m. • Non-WMA students are not permitted to participate in dorm visitation unless approved by the Deans Office or Administrator on Duty. • Students must introduce their guest (WMA student or visitor) to their dorm parents and request permission for visitation; any change of location requires the student to notify the dorm parent. • Guests are escorted through the dorm by their hosts. • During dorm visitation, doors are open, lights on and music is kept at a reasonable level.

• Students’ conduct should reflect respectful and reasonable social interaction. • Visitation occurs when it is healthy and safe to do so. • Students who fail to abide by these guidelines or comply with the requests of dorm parents will lose this privilege and may face disciplinary consequences.
