Even Post Grads Get Punished

So I'm sitting here and I hear the little ping that I love so much that tells me I have a new message. I saw that it was from the accommodation office and didn't give it much thought as they are always sending something out, be it about parcels or toasters. This one I found quite amusing and goes to show that even as post grads we get things taken away. Its sort of like when your a kid and your mum takes away a toy because you've been naughty. Anyway this is what it says:

Dear Residents of Woolf College

I have received numerous complaints and reports about loud parties taking place in Woolf College Common Room. These parties have involved amplification equipment, shouting and other disturbances between the hours of midnight and 4 a.m. When asked to disperse by Campus Watch, one of the participants threw a stink bomb into the Common Room. Another resident responded, 'I don't care if anyone is trying to sleep. I want to party'. This activity is making it impossible for residents to study and sleep, and will not be tolerated.

As a result, I have taken the decision to close the Common Room for a period of two weeks. I very much regret having to take such a decision. The purpose of the common room is for students to relax and to socialise. However, in all accommodation noise levels must be kept at a low level and cease altogether between the hours of midnight and 8 a.m. The Common Room is not designed for the purpose of holding parties, nor do residents have permission to do so.

When it reopens, I will continue to monitor the use of the Common Room.
