Our department is excited to announce that residents have the ability to submit a work order for their room directly from the web.  Please follow these simple steps:

Step 1: Log in Dude Solutions Logo

  • Log into your Cardinal Apps and Search for "Dude Solutions" among the icons.

Step 2: Location

  • Under the 'Location' tab, please select 'Residence Halls.' This will bring up the residence halls in the 'Building' tab. 
  • Select your building in the 'Building' tab. 
  • For the 'Area,' please select 'Student Room.'   
  • It is very important that you put your room number in the 'Area/Room Number' location so our maintenance department knows where exactly the issue is occurring.

Step 3: Select Problem Type

  • Electrical: If all your plugs in your room stop working, please select this category

  • Heating/Ventilation/Air Conditioning: If your A/C is not working or there are issues within your room, please select this category
    • Please note, all thermostats should have the fan set to "Auto" to help control humidity and air flow
