Students are prohibited from having pets or keeping or providing for any animals on University property, including in University residences, except in the circumstances outlined in the Assistance Animals policy.
Additionally, visiting animals must be kept outdoors and leashed. Students who violate this policy are subject to corrective action through the University’s accountability process, and will bear any costs associated with damage to or cleaning required in spaces where animals are found in violation of this policy. Fish may be kept in aquariums, but flesh-eating and dangerous fish (e.g., piranha) are prohibited.
