Campus Life
Living on Campus
http://www.marshall.edu/residence-services/
If you are a freshman or sophomore under the age of 21 and you live outside
the 50 mile commuting distance from Marshall University, you'll be required
to live on campus. Living on campus means you'll be staying in one of the
six dorms, and you can request a specific dorm and room type when applying
for housing. The prices and features of the dorms vary so you'll want to
do some research before making your decision. Additional information about
living on campus is available from Residence Services on the first floor
of Laidley Hall or by phone at (800)438-5391 or (304)696-6766.
Meal Plans

the dining halls at Twin Towers, Holderby Hall, and the Memorial Student
Center. All meals are provided by Marriot Management Services. Meal Plans
can be purchased through the I.D. Office located in the Memorial Student
Center BW31 and are available to both commuters and campus residents.
Safety

The safety of our students is one of the main goals of the University.
Several emergency phones are located around the campus and are identified
by the blue light on top of the phone box. Dialing 4357 (HELP) from any
University phone or these emergency phones will provide direct contact
with the MUPD police dispatcher 24 hours a day. MUPD provides 24-hour-a-day
patrol protection to the campus, adjacent University-owned facilities
and parking lots.
