Message from Phyllis
The safety of our
residents is of the highest priority. The College Courtyard Apartments are
under 24-hour video surveillance and all entrances are gated. You can do your
part to make sure the College Courtyard Apartments are a secure and safe place
to live. Never give your key or garage transmitter to others. Please report any
damage or repairs that may be necessary to maintain safe conditions. That would
include lights out in the common areas, parking garage, stairwells, front
entrance and laundry rooms. We also ask that when ever possible you walk in
groups and never alone at night. The escort service number is 784-6808.
Parking is Free and Easy
As many of you know, 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. Our parking is the equivalent of Silver Permit parking and
is a $570 value. With our students, instead of driving round and round looking
for a parking space or waiting for a shuttle bus you can have another 20
minutes of precious sleep. That’s a real bonus and another benefit of living at
the College Courtyard.
Sleep In, We’re a 5 Minute Walk to Class
The location of the College
Courtyard Apartments is the best for students. We are on a quiet side street,
just one block west of the University of Nevada campus.
Need More
Storage Space?
The College Courtyard has storage
lockers available for rent for only $30 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.
Interesting
Fact: Maya Angelou was the first
black female streetcar conductor in San Francisco.
Free Wi-Fi is a $540 Value
In this economy, every dollar saved can help pay for
books and tuition. That’s why living at the College Courtyard Apartments is the
best value for University of Nevada students. We offer free DSL/Wi-Fi to every
bedroom. That free DSL/Wi-Fi would cost you $540 per year at other apartment
complexes or rental houses.
The College Courtyard Is Nevada’s Best
Off Campus Location
Location, location,
location. There is nothing like the location of the College Courtyard
Apartments. We are a half block from the center of campus and yet we are on a
quiet side street. While living at the College Courtyard you can actually get
up five minutes before class and still make it on time. No worries about
catching a shuttle or trying to find a parking space when you live at the
College Courtyard. This is just one more reason why this is a great place to
live.
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.
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.
Interesting Fact: Portland was named by a coin flip. Had the coin landed the other way, the
city would be Boston, Oregon.
Watch Your
Step
During the winter months we make every
effort to keep the sidewalks and stairs free of snow and ice. Never the less,
please use caution after a storm. Use the handrails on the stairs and step
carefully when on the sidewalk to the north of the building as it is steep and
gets little sun. Hopefully spring is on its way!
Please Don’t Drink
and Drive
For your safety and the
safety of others, please don’t drink and drive. Your futures are too bright to
be wasted by a DUI or worse. Get a designated driver, walk or call a taxi but
please do not get behind the wheel of a car while under the influence.
Interesting Fact: J.K. Simmons has been the voice
of the Yellow Peanut M&M since the late 1990s.
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.
Fitness Center
The Wiegand Fitness Center is a short
walk from the College Courtyard Apartments——just across from the Joe. It’s one
of the finest fitness facilities in the country.
Interesting Fact: I’ve run out of space.
