Support During Festive Season

Your official bulletin for all the latest resi news and events info!

The December holiday period is traditionally a time for celebration. For

some people the festive season can be difficult and intensify mental

health difficulties. We therefore would like to remind you of some supports

available.

For more formal supports, don’t forget about: Student Counselling

Please note, the resi office will continue to operate 24 hours over the

university shut-down period with a reduced team on board to assist you.

Cleaning Over Christmas

A guest is defined as a person who is invited to stay in your room overnight once approval has been

sought from the Residences office.

You must obtain approval for a guest by going to the reception desk and getting a Guest Pass form from

reception.

The following restrictions on guests apply:

A resident may apply to have one overnight guest three times a week

Any non-resident who is present without a guest pass after 11pm

will be required to leave the residences and the

resident responsible for that visitor will incur a $50 casual

accommodation charge per person, per night.

All overnight guests must be registered with the administration

office.

The guest is to stay in the room of the person who has signed

them in, not just anywhere in the residences and not in the

lounge or other common areas.

A particular guest may only stay in residences for three nights

per week (beginning Monday and ending Sunday).

Residents are responsible for the proper conduct of their guests

and accept financial responsibility should their guest damage

residences or University property.

A ‘guest’ must be known to the resident.

Why have an overnight Guest Policy?

Fire safety - in case of a fire we can track all potential occupants and to control the numbers who

need access to fire safety exits in the case of an emergency

Security - any people staying on residences are known to at least one person who will take

responsibility for their actions and can vouch for their movements.

Protect the privacy & comfort of residents - not everyone enjoys sharing their home with a, larger

than necessary, group of people.
