If you already signed a lease, you don’t have to agree to new terms for that lease. It’s already a valid lease that can’t easily be terminated, and Michigan has pretty good renter protection laws (I used to live there). Not a lawyer though, but a lease is a binding agreement that they can’t just arbitrarily change and force you to accept

Students don’t lease dorm rooms in the traditional sense of a lease

They can if "they" are the state.
