College Courtyard Apartments - June 2016 Newsletter
Enjoy the Courtyard
The courtyard is a great place to catch some rays of sun
or just relax. There are tables with umbrellas available for your enjoyment.
Please remember to lower the umbrellas after use (especially on windy days).
The bar-b-que is available for grilling but please keep the area clean and pick
up after all courtyard meals.

No Beer Kegs
Beer
kegs are strictly forbidden at the College Courtyard Apartments. Kegs are not allowed on the courtyard or in
individual apartments. All of your leases clearly state that large gatherings
are prohibited. Kegs are only for large gatherings. Please be aware that if you
bring a keg onto the property we will begin eviction proceedings immediately
Message from Phyllis
Please keep in mind that many of the residents of the
College Courtyard Apartments are taking summer classes. These classes are very
intense and the need for a quiet study environment is important. Please be
considerate of your fellow residents who are “burning the midnight oil” and
limit excess noise, loud music/TV and parties. I would also like to thank each
of you for your cooperation and special effort in helping to keep the complex
clean. We continually strive to keep the complex clean, quiet and safe for all
of our residents. Have a great summer!!
Interesting Fact: The Human eyes never grow, but nose and ears
never stop growing.
Parking is Free and
Easy
As many of you have heard,
the University of
Nevada continues to
increase the parking fees on campus. The University has parking fee increases scheduled
every year for the next five years. Fortunately, the residents of the College
Courtyard Apartments don’t have to worry about these increases. Our residents
enjoy free parking that is close to the campus. With our students, instead of
driving round and round looking for a parking space you can have another 20
minutes of precious sleep. That’s a real bonus and another benefit of living at
the College Courtyard.
Interesting Fact: A Boeing 747's wingspan is longer than the
Wright brother's first flight.
Street Parking
If
you park on the street, new permits will be available the last week of the
month at the College Courtyard office.
Snacks Available
As
you study for your exams does the grumble of your stomach keep you from
concentrating? A quick snack can help you quell those hunger pangs. A snack and
drink machine is available in the first floor laundry room. It’s quick, easy
and convenient.
Interesting Fact: Ninety percent of all species that have become
extinct have been birds.
Vacuum
A vacuum is available for your use. If you wish to borrow
our vacuum it can be checked out at the office. Please return the vacuum
immediately after use, as other students may need to use it.
More Interesting Facts: The citrus soda 7-UP was created in 1929; '7'
was selected after the original 7-ounce containers and 'UP' for the
direction of the bubbles.
Need Storage For
The Summer?
The College Courtyard has storage
lockers available for rent for only $25 per month. The 4’ by 5’ lockers are
located on the second and third floors. These storage lockers are a great place
to store skis, bicycles, or camping equipment. See Phyllis for more
information.
Garbage
Tossing Is Not Sport
Please be considerate and
do not throw your garbage from the stairwell landing towards the dumpster. Many
times your aim is not on target and a mess is created. This is both unsightly and unsanitary. We
would appreciate your cooperation

in the English language rhymes with month,
orange, silver and purple.
orange, silver and purple.

without water longer than a camel.
.Summer Residents
Please be advised that if
you sublet your apartment during the summer you must have prior approval from
management.
Watch the Gate
Please be very careful when driving through the garage
gate. If the gate is going down, DO NOT try to slip under the gate. Once the
gate begins to go down it will not stop if you press the button on the garage
gate opener. It will only stop when it hits something and it could do
considerable damage to both your car and the gate if this occurs. The gate is
set to stay up an adequate amount of time for one car. You will be held
responsible for any damage if the camera shows that you tried to slip through
the gate inappropriately.
Interesting Fact: 'Stewardesses' is the longest word that is
typed with only the left hand.
Laundry Rooms
Please
be considerate of your neighbors and do not leave your clothes in the washers
or dryers unattended after the washing and drying cycle.
No Hover Boards
Until a safe hover board is
manufactured, they are banned from the College Courtyard Apartments. These
devices have proved to be dangerous——especially when being charged. Having a
hover board in your apartment could lead to eviction.
Security is Important
Security at the College Courtyard
Apartments is a priority. All of our entrances are under 24 hour video
surveillance. Recently we installed additional gates and barriers to make the
complex even more secure. At night the College Courtyard Apartments are very
well lit and there are no dark corners. We encourage our residents to monitor
carefully who is buzzed into the courtyard.
