QUIET HOURS RULES:

Starting 5 PM on December 10, quiet hours rules are in effect 24-7 in Gregory (including weekends!).  That means:

*No music, crowd noise or other sound audible outside of your apartments

*No use of the piano in the piano lounge (sorry)

*Minimal volume on public space televisions, video game consoles, etc—and please turn the volume (way) down when requested. 

*Keep in mind that if you are hanging out in our big public space areas—the west wing on VP1 or the basement in C25-- there are bound to be people studying somewhere nearby and try to keep the chattering down a little.

House staff will be enforcing these policies.  Please help us keep Gregory a suitable environment for studying; you may not feel that you are disturbing anyone, but every year we receive *many* complaints from residents about noise during this period.

If you are facing substantial noise issues or other problematic distractions, please feel free to contact your RA/GA or, if they are not available, have the staff member on duty paged by either front desk.  Ditto if you find sinister non-residents (shudder) squatting inside our Gregory-only study rooms.  

FINALS STUDY BREAKS GALORE

But it’s not all gloomy quiet! Starting December 11, our faculty and RAGAs will be hosting study breaks every day throughout reading days and finals.  Times and locations will change, so keep an eye out for emails each day from various staff members.  There are also films in the cinema lounge throughout this week for more extended breaks.
