Thanks for your comments
The build up of heat in the IT Suite in recent days is due to unseasonably warm weather. Being a large space it takes a long time to heat up and a long time to cool down so changes are very slow to respond.
The student population's behaviour is causing concern across the whole University - not just the LRC. Its been noted that behaviour in general is unacceptable in both study space and classrooms. We do not have the staffing capacity to baby sit groups of adults. If you notice particularly bad behaviour please could you report it to security or to LR desk staff. Security will patrol and issue written warnings as appropriate.
LR is introducing an anti noise campaign at Park Square and Polhill for 2 weeks. Week 1: 20 - 24 April and week 2: 18 - 22 May. We are hiring extra security to patrol constantly during these weeks (the first back after Easter and then the first week of revision/exams) so that a clear message is given out regarding appropriate behaviour. The campaign is endorsed by the SU and we're hoping that this will have a positive effect.
