A full compilation of policies that govern students may be found in:

As a courtesy, faculty, staff, and students may arrange to have their packages sent to the school via the following address:

When having packages delivered to the school through Operations and Planning, please note that:

• All packages must include recipient’s name.
• When picking up packages it is required to show ID.
• There is no alert when packages arrive- one must come to Meyerson room G29 and check the mail log for the package.
• Personal letters, bills, magazines, etc. are not permitted.
• Due to limited space, we are unable to store packages for more than one month, after which time they may be returned to sender.
• Upon request, the office can lend carts to assist in moving heavier/larger packages into studios.

Gray bulletin boards in hallways or stairwells can be used to post flyers related to both Weitzman-specific and Penn-organized activities, organizations, and events.

For departmental events at Weitzman, one may contact the Office of Communications (news@design.upenn.edu) to have information shown on the lobby screens.

Studio-specific information should be posted within the appropriate studios on pinnable homasote walls.

It is prohibited to pin or tape to any other surface within the building, and doing so will result in materials being removed and discarded.

Pets are not permitted within University buildings.  Service animals are allowed.

Bicycle Policy

• Bicycles are not permitted within Weitzman buildings.
• All bicycles must be secured to exterior bike racks.
