It was also decided that blocks would remain separate from the lottery, but they would still use the cohort number, rather than entirely separate numbers as was discussed last week. The committee then moved on to a discussion of facilities. Mertz will also be modified for wheelchair accessibility, as Willits will be in the future. Bathrooms and kitchens then became the main topics of discussion. Hall bathrooms are supposed to be cleaned every day, M-F, but Myrt will check to see if this is thorough cleaning, or a quick sweep including only garbage and toilet paper checks.
Private bathrooms are to be cleaned once per week.
The Danawell Trailor is also supposed to be cleaned once per week, and Myrt will look into that as well. Kitchens, their supplies and policies, were discussed, but it was decided that these things should come up during individual dorm council meetings. The college does not stock kitchens with any food staples or cookware. Lastly, during Winter Break, facilities employees make sweeps of buildings, checking for problems. Students can indicate problems in a list on their doors.
