You can contact Housing, but staff may be limited in what student-specific details they can disclose without the student's consent or another legal basis.
USF Housing can receive a parent's concern and explain general procedures, but FERPA can restrict disclosure of protected student information. The fastest path for many roommate or room issues is for the student to contact the RA or Housing directly and authorize any needed parent involvement.
