Expect Traffic Delays as Students Move Out Next Week

More than 4,000 students living on campus will move out from Monday, May 10 through Saturday, May 15.

While Residential Life has set up appointments to socially distance the move-out, there may be delays entering, exiting and traveling around campus and in the local area. Some congestion is expected on campus and heavy traffic leading into campus on University Drive, Massachusetts Avenue, Route 9, Route 116 and North Pleasant Street. Drivers are reminded to practice pedestrian safety as you travel around campus.

In addition, the New2U collection that typically takes place during spring move-out has been canceled for this year. This collaborative effort has diverted hundreds of tons of gently used belongings from the landfill since its inception on campus in 2014. The New2U collection and tag sale are points of pride for the university and Residential Life is looking forward to bringing them back to campus for spring and fall of 2022.
