Task 1: The Residence Hall
The University Residence Hall houses 339 students. It is conveniently located on campus, and
provides comfortable, fully¹ air-conditioned room for male and female students. As an integral part
of the educational program, it is more than a place where students can eat and sleep; it is a living
unit in the true sense of the term. Here students from all parts of the country and all corners of the
world are assigned to room without regard to race, religion, color or national origin. They enjoy
many opportunities to make new friends with all kinds of people and can also enjoy many
voluntary educational, social, culture and recreational activities provided by the Residence Hall
staff, in cooperation with the Residence Hall Council. The experience here will contribute as much
to students’ development as will their coursework and study, and ultimately to the sound education
needed for effective citizenship² in the community.
