It's hard being away from people you're use to seeing everyday, and it's nice to check up on old friends / be checked up on. I would argue that the housing policy should not put a restriction on the number of guests allowed to stay over in your apartment unless there is excessive noise being made.

Home Sweet Home?
When my friends from back home (Oregon) found out I would be attending the summer term of BYU, they were a little disappointed I wouldn't be around for our last summer together. Although I was mostly glad to be moving myself in a new direction, I found I as also let down that I wouldn't just hanging out this summer with my friends. A couple weeks ago, I found out that 2 or 3 of my Oregon-buddies were planning a road trip down here to visit with friends (which would now include me). I was pretty excited when I found out and they already planned on staying in my dorm / apartment (I live in Wyview) with me. However.... when I first moved in a noticed a BYU Guest Registration form that permitted only one guest in an apartment at a time, and a failure to abide by this rule would result in a $40 fine. I understand the need to register guests staying in your rented apartment so RA's can know when there are extra people and so a person doesn't end up letting someone else live at their house. I mean, what kind of world would we live in if everyone didn't know what everyone else was doing all the time? (sarcastic). I don't see the issue with visitors of the same gender staying over for a night, especially when it's less than 4 people, and if roommates give it the okay.
