The one time of the year the SU gives a crap about off-campus students, in order to get their vote.

Depends where you are - I must be off-off-campus, Haven't seen a soul - not necessarily a bad thing, but I haven't a clue who is running or what their campaigns are about.

Count your blessings! You can't walk through the Arts Block without about fifty of them coming at you with leaflets. They stand in the doorways too so you can't escape them from the minute you arrive. Have taken to charging through with my eyes fixed on the floor :P

It's a bit late for me to say this this year, but there's always next year for many: What you do is go up the ramp of the Arts Block through the doors near the security desk, and go up to the stairs. Then go up to the 3rd floor, go across to the next set of stairs and come back down again. Successfully avoids most of the area where you find all the leafleting takes place -it's worth it

(I don't actually have a problem with them, but I will help those who have had enough)!

And in the Hamilton don't go near the entrance next to the SU shop, Panoz is where it's at. Need to get to the library? Stairs to the left as you come in the Panoz, or the outside staircase, also there's a secret* door beside the SU shop that will get you into the front of the MacNeil, Joly and some other lecture theaters

*May not actually be secret and just not very noticeable

I was in the Hamilton Library this evening and some annoying guy in his fifties eating a bag of king crisps. Annoying ba stard. Just go outside if you want to eat ffs :mad:

Why does his age matter? Tell him to STFU or get out.

People keep using the top floor of the Hamilton library for study groups. That's what the group study rooms are for!

I've noticed this. When you go up the stairs and the desks to the left.

I'm in 4th year now so I have zero tolerance for any shíte going on in the library now.

One would expect an older member of the college community to have a little more courtesy than, say, a Junior Freshman.

You get inconsiderate assholes at any age.

Girls toilets in the Hamilton, do half of the female student body not realise that you put toilet paper in the bins and not in the toilet after you dry your hands... There are more clogged toilets than working ones by 2-3pm each day.

Also, it would be nice to have unlocked bathrooms before 8:45am. Having both the East End and Hamilton toilets locked at the same time from 8:00am onwards makes no sense.

Justin Bieber - Baby, and Tina Turner's "You're simply the best" are NOT gym music FFS!

And THIS! This is bloody music for a lift! :mad:

Get earphones.

Same guy in the Ham library this evening making all sorts of rude noises as well as talking out loud. He was bothering some people so much that they got up and left. WTF?

Been there. After Schols I was rocking a solid €35 fine. The library lady was essentially giving out to me as she listed off all the fines

I hate that the library only sends you out one email two days before you're meant to return a book. Now I have to go into college tomorrow as its ridiculously easy to forget the due date.

I never got why the email was two days before, I wish it was the day before;I always completely forget about the email by the time the book is due
