SUSTAINABILITY
“We enjoy the positive interactions that we have with students year after year. Our team is committed to making your stay in residence as comfortable as possible, and we do our best to work with you to make you feel at home.� BARBARA AND DOUG, CUSTODIAL STAFF
Garbage and recycling are to be taken outside residence buildings to the appropriate collection site, except in buildings with garbage chutes. Students are not to use common areas to dispose of large amounts of garbage. Please note that moloks located outside of the buildings are separated into different categories: garbage, exclusively cardboard and other recyclables. Students are encouraged to have a sustainable attitude to keep the Laurier campus green! All residence rooms, whether dorm-style or apartment-style, should be fully equipped with garbage cans and recycling bins. If you are missing either bin, contact your Residence Life Don. The Sustainability Office is introducing a Residence Composting Program at the Waterloo Campus. In order to sign up for this program, which includes a green bin, bin liners, instructions and a map of organic drop-off locations, please contact Claire Bennett, Manager: Sustainability Office at cbennett@wlu.ca.
Cleaning CUSTODIANS Custodians are responsible for maintaining the public and common areas of the residences. Custodians are under the direct supervision of the Department of Physical Resources. Residents are responsible for the cleanliness and condition of their room and for personal litter in public areas. Residents are expected to respect custodians at all times.
MAINTENANCE: BRANTFORD: If you have a maintenance request for your room or suite please email reswork@wlu.ca. WATERLOO: Please contact your Don and provide details of the repair. Your Don will forward a work order to the Facility Operations Coordinator and the appropriate person will assess the repair. Physical Resources has the right to enter a residence room without prior notice in order to perform maintenance duties.
DAMAGE AND VANDALISM Students are responsible for the condition of their bedrooms and suite common areas. Students will be held responsible for the cost of any repairs and/or replacement of residence property resulting from vandalism, carelessness, neglect, or any other damage.
