Union Council Chiar and Cousre Rep Chair Diary entries by steventopazio on Thu 15th May 2008
Ive just heard the unsurprising news that there is no water in James Watson Hall. Why does this not surprise me I hear you ask? Well the lovely people called UNITE who own the halls have a tendacncy of cutting through pipes and laying pipes liable to bursting. My mind is cast back to my first year when we went 3 days without water because some plonker cut through the pipe. On that occasion we were issues with 1 X 500 ml bottle of water to last us each day, and £10 which was supposed to pay for breakfast, lunch and dinner. As far as washing was concerned we were invited to go and shower at the Nuffield Gym. Lovely and private those showers in the gym. Of course our exams and coursework suffered and as did our bank balance, although the very kind Dr Craven gave us a £50 refund at the end of the year. This time round I doubt you will be so lucky, I have heard stories of poeple not getting water. Although you are being given plastic knives and forks to eat your deli too's with. So if I were you I would walk down to University House now and demand answers. UNITE are useless - FACT. Hopefully one day the University will realise this and ditch them. We have to pay over £3000 for the privilage of living in the dumps (which by the way is more than the basic student loan!) so the students should have some say. So stand up and hold the people who run this place accountable.
And for all of those students coming here in the future, avoid the UNITE halls, unless of course you like living like a tramp. Permanent link
