Hall Inspections 2016 -17
Two University apartment (UA) inspections were carried out in autumn and spring in the residential year of 2016 -17.
With the assistance of attendants, we inspected the conditions in the common areas of their apartments, giving residents
suggestions and to investigate violations of halls rules. The overall results were satisfactory, in comparing with 2016 autumn semester, the total number of hall rules violation cases decrease from 13 to 10.
The following hall rules violations are common in the UA Towers. You can save yourself a lot of trouble by avoiding these behaviors…
Common Hall Rules Violation in UA
1) Laundry found hanging from the sprinklers/curtain rails 2) Kitchen / Toilet hygiene problem
3) Personal Items placed in the living room (sofa area) 4) Illegal residents were found
Roommate Agreements
Roommate issues don’t just happen with undergraduates!
Postgraduate residents may also face disagreements with their roommates too. We encourage all residents who have a
roommate to establish some “house rules” early on. All residents living in the University Apartments are highly encouraged to initiate a conversation about topics such as kitchen cleanliness, outside visitors and sleeping schedules with you roommates or flatmates. Hopefully this could be able to work together to come up with compromises that you both can live with.
Upcoming Reslife Events for PGs!
Dance Workshop, Community Cultural Tour, Sushi Movie Night, Hiking, Bike Tour and More! Let’s keep calm and stay tuned
