UT: American Campus complexes may evict students who host gatherings of more than 10 people

AUSTIN -- West Campus apartment complexes may evict students for violating social distancing guidelines that restrict indoor gatherings to 10 people in response to college students' parties around the nation.

"As a reminder, our lease agreement has a policy that residents should not have gatherings of more than 10 people," American Campus Communities wrote in an email to its tenants obtained by the Daily Texan. "If these guidelines are not followed we will be taking disciplinary action that could lead to eviction."

American Campus Communities owns multiple West Campus properties including The Callaway House, The Castilian, The Block, Crest at Pearl, Texan and Vintage, and 26 West, and say they will enforce social distancing rules at all their apartment complexes. The addendum in residents’ leases requires students to have fewer than 10 total people in their apartment, including those living in the apartment.

"We are dedicated to promoting the wellbeing of our residents and doing what we can to help you feel a part of the community, especially in these dynamic times," American Campus properties said in an email to residents. "Our ability to have a successful fall semester depends on it. We're in this together."
