Frequently Asked Questions
Help, I got locked out of my room! What do I do?
Don't worry, someone will be around to help you. During the daytime when the reception is open, just head to the reception and the staff will be able to let you back in. When the reception is closed, before 7pm on week days and 2pm on weekends, head to the dining hall and ask the kitchen staff for help. Overnight, you can call the wardens using the black phone by the reception.
Who is the best committee member?
Zoe the IT rep. You should give her free cake and biscuits for being such a good IT rep.
Who is the worst committee member?
I couldn't possibly say 😉
Who made this amazing website?
Tis me, Zoe :). I am the IT rep extraordinaire. I made it because I absolutely love Melville (and definitely not because I needed an excuse to procrastinate my actual CS coursework).
