Now you get down to the business of keeping your members happy and your house occupied. You must help your members with interpersonal conflicts, and you sometimes will act as a liaison between the member and other officers to resolve maintenance, food, or financial issues. You must train your members to give tours and you must acquire applications. Also, you must set up a profile of the type of member your house would like to attract and chair a house meeting, or house committee, that accepts or rejects applications based on that profile. Dealing with Interpersonal Conflicts A frequent problem in CH is one member complaining about the noise of another member.
All members have the right to quiet enjoyment of their rooms.
The offending resident is liable to CH for any damages that result from the above behaviors. Also, if a student engages in unlawful behavior, like smoking marijuana and smelling up the hallway, this is a violation of their contract. Engaging in these behaviors is a violation of Section 30 of the CH contract and is grounds for eviction and is not subject to a house vote. Often reading the above passage from their contract to the offending students will make them aware of their contractual obligation and will encourage them to be more considerate of their neighbors. Of course, if students ignore reasonable warnings, then, as Membership Coordinator, you must initiate an eviction procedure.
