Dear Residential Student, 

Prior to your arrival, Residential Services staff documented the condition of your room and its contents. This information will be used when you vacate the space, or as concerns arise, to determine whether any damage or excessive wear may have occurred, and to assess any necessary charges. 

Your “Room Condition Report” will be made available via eRezLife and you will have until September 29 to confirm its accuracy or note any discrepancies you may find. If you choose not to confirm or comment by September 29, the original report will be accepted as accurate, and you be responsible for any changes to the condition of the room that may be found during future inspections or when you vacate the space. NOTE: If you have a roommate, please review the report with them as one copy will be sent per pair of roommates. 

To access, review, and acknowledge your Room Condition Report: 

1. Sign in to my.alfredstate.edu  

2. Click on the “Sign Up For Housing” icon 

   a.(This will redirect to eRezLife) 

3. In the “Home” menu, navigate to “Forms” -> “My Forms” -> “Room Condition Report Form” 

4. Review the room condition report and then, under the “Resident Acknowledgement” section, select either “Yes” or “No” 

   a. If you select “No,” you will need to describe the discrepancy (e.g., “The desktop is scratched”) and upload a photo.  

5. Finally, select “Confirmation to Building Professional” and choose the staff member responsible for your residence hall:

Fall is right around the corner here at Alfred State. Sustainability Club would like to invite everyone to a fall hike on Wednesday, September 27th at 6pm. We will be meeting at Student Lot # 22 by Orvis at 6pm. We will be hiking some of the Alfred State Hiking Trails just in time to see the beautiful fall foliage.  Please remember to dress warmly, wear closed toed shoes and get ready to rest and relax with us!

Please email JoAnna Musacchio, Sustainability Club President, at musaccj@alfredstate.edu if you have any questions regarding the hike. 

This past Saturday nearly 100 people came together from the Village of Alfred, Alfred State, and Alfred University to put some care into our shared community and our students were front and center as engaged participants. To all involved on the day, thank you for your service!  Very proud to be part of such a contributive community and look forward to seeing where this culture of care takes us next! 

For any student, faculty, or staff looking to get involved in more initiative like this, we'd love to hear from you (civicengagement@alfredstate.edu)!

Women wrestle, and so can you…even if you’ve never wrestled before. Are you courageous? Dedicated? Passionate about empowering women? The women’s wrestling team hopes to find a few more brave ladies to try wrestling, and you might be a great fit. This is your chance to make history and play an NCAA DIII sport, but the kick is, no experience is required. If you already like the gym, enjoy learning about nutrition, and are competitive, come to our interest meeting on Wednesday, 10/4 at 6:00PM in ORVIS 321, or reach out to Coach Laine ((425) 321-9667, Kermoaml@alfredstate.edu) to see what it’d look like to be a woman wrestler for Alfred State.

Residential Services would like to remind students that while Mini-break is occurring, our residence halls will not close nor are students required to leave for break. Our residence halls will still be staffed by Resident Directors during standard business hours for mini-breaks. We encourage you to call your building's RA on Duty number if you are in need of assistance. 

Please note, that the Student Code of Conduct and License of Residence will be enforced during the mini-break and any violation of the Student Code of Conduct or License of Residence will be addressed and followed-up on accordingly.

For any questions, please contact Residential Services at reslife@alfredstate.edu or 607-587-4371.

Consider volunteering through the IRS program VITA (Volunteer Income Tax Assistance). Volunteers, once certified, can help those that meet income requirements file tax returns free of charge!  Alfred State is currently coordinating with the IRS, Alfred University, area school districts and the Southern Tier Library System to determine site locations and the number of volunteers needed based off expected returns to be processed.  Training is online and free to any who would like to complete it once the material becomes available in November.  Tax preparation would begin in January and end in April with dates, times and locations to be determined.  For more information on what it takes to be volunteer you may visit: IRS Tax Volunteers | Internal Revenue Service.  Interested volunteers should contact Professor Holly Chase at chasehs@alfredstate.edu.  You need not be a business or accounting student or even a student to volunteer!  This service is open to anyone who is interested in giving back to the community.
