Room Arrangement<br />

Furniture<br />

The furniture in the AMRs can be arranged in a variety<br />

of ways. The furniture in these rooms is “loftable,”<br />

which means the beds can be elevated to maximize<br />

floor space. All furniture has features that allow you<br />

to save space. Lofting requires special equipment;<br />

residents must sign up in the AMR II Housing Office<br />

at the beginning of each semester to have furniture<br />

lofted. You may also bunk your beds.<br />

Be careful with the furniture. You are responsible<br />

for any damage beyond normal wear and tear. In<br />

addition, furniture may not be removed from rooms.<br />

Inform your Housing Office if any furniture is missing<br />

from your room upon your arrival.<br />

Trash Disposal<br />

AMR I & AMR II<br />

Custodians pick up trash daily before noon from the<br />

trash cans located on each house floor. The debris from<br />

room trash cans should be emptied into the hallway<br />

trash can. Please do not leave the trash can from your<br />

room in the hallway. Students are encouraged to use<br />

the large recycling and compost bins located in the<br />

AMR I & II common areas. Small recycling bins are<br />

also provided in each residential space.<br />

AMR III A&B<br />

Empty your trash can into the garbage chutes located<br />

on the 3rd and 4th floors, or place your trash in the<br />

large bins that are located in the entryways or rear<br />

vestibules of both buildings. When using the chute,<br />

be sure that all garbage is wrapped. Do not attempt<br />

to force anything into the chute which is larger than<br />

the chute. This will cause a blockage. Please do not<br />

leave the trash can from your room in the hallway.<br />

Students are encouraged to use the large recycling<br />

and compost bins located in the Building A & B<br />

common areas. Small recycling bins are also provided<br />

in each residential space.<br />
