On-campus housing is defined as housing that is owned by the University.  Carney-Johnston Residence Hall, once the most popular place for Lambuth University students to live, was renovated and reopened in Fall 2013. This historic building, located on the quadrangle between Wilder College Union and the Wellness, Health & Fitness Building (WHFB) on the new UofM Lambuth grounds, offers housing for up to 190 students in single and double rooms with suite-style baths.

Residence Life has information for students and their families about residence hall life, including information about what to bring to campus, dining options, and how to get involved in residence hall activities. On-campus living is a unique experience for college students and we hope that your student will choose to have this opportunity.

Each floor in a residence hall has a Resident Advisor (RA). This is an upper-division level student who is trained with information and resources to assist residents.

• The first six weeks of school are crucial for students to become connected with the UofM community. As a parent, you can help by encouraging your student to get involved on campus.
• Most traditional residence halls close for school breaks, including spring break, and winter break with no re-entry during both these times (no exceptions).
• Eligible students can apply for housing for the following academic year beginning November 1 at 12:01 a.m.

Meal plans for students are available in several different options to meet the needs of the student. Students can select a 100, 80 or 50 meals per semester plan that includes declining balance dollars (Flex Bucks) that can be used at the BlueGray Cafe and includes 5 guest meals for friends, family or guests. Resident meal plans are purchased through the housing portal. Students who reside in a residence hall are not required to purchase a meal plan.

Flex Bucks are attached to meal plans and are designed to help students cover between meals or snacks at the other dining locations on campus. Unused flex bucks do not carry over to the next semester.

All full-time undergraduate students participate in the Tiger Eat$ program. Undergraduate students who are enrolled in 12 or more credit hours and at least one of their classes is on campus, will automatically have $300 in Tiger Eat$ added to their account each fall and spring semester.

Students will be able to use these funds at all UofM dining locations. The Tiger Eat$ averages to $2.68 per day or $18.75 per week to spend at UofM Dining on campus for meals, beverages and snacks, including Starbucks and some vending machines.

Any Tiger Eat$ balance from the fall semester will be transferred to the spring semester. You have until the last day of the spring semester to use the funds and dine around campus. Visit the Tiger Eat$ FAQ page for more information.
