How can I report a possible error?

Use the correction form and include the page URL, the statement that may be wrong, and an official source when one is available. Fred Langemark, founder and editor, is accountable for the correction process. Do not include student records, housing assignments, or other private information.

Possible outcome Correct, clarify, replace, remove, or leave the wording unchanged after checking the official source.

What to send

A useful correction report identifies the exact Dorm, Sorted. page and statement. If the issue concerns a campus rule, send the official university or housing page that conflicts with the published wording and note the campus, residence hall, room type, or academic year involved.

The site does not need personal student information to evaluate a factual correction.

How a correction is handled

Fred Langemark is accountable for the correction process. Automation and AI-assisted checks may help compare the report with the stored evidence and current official source, but a submitted report never edits a public rule by itself.

If a credible official source conflicts with a campus rule, only that rule is checked again. If the source cannot support the published wording, the result changes to Verify or is withheld while unrelated rules stay available.

A substantive public change updates the page, modification date, and change log. The detailed verification history remains append-only for auditability.

Start a correction report

The contact form asks for the affected page, correction type, school or residence hall, and an optional official source. Submitting starts a review; it does not immediately change a published rule. Include no student records, housing assignments, roommate details, or other private information.
