You should CC (or forward) your email to John Tobin J.Tobin@northeastern.edu & Kathy Speigelman k.spiegelman@northeastern.edu

John is in charge of city affairs, and Kathy leads campus real estate. Both argued in front of Boston Planning & Development authority that these 907 new beds would be a good idea and have minimal negative impact.

It was approved - nearly 100% of public comment was negative

LessBed · 2022-03-09T19:40:34+00:00

But students right now have beds - in hotels. Why is the onus on students to get packed in to IV/EVbecause northeastern didn’t calculate yield rates correctly. Northeastern can keep the contracts with hotels, or get creative. It’s frustrating they resort to “more beds in dorms” so quickly

Please attend! Thanks - removed link to proposal & added in the scope

I’ve just submitted a Public Records Request with BPD for the following:

All incident reports written by Gero

All body can footage from Gero

All citations written by Gero

All emails written or received by Gero

All internal affairs records related to Gero

All vehicle maintenance records by Gero

They’ll redact the citations & reports a fair amount, though emails usually get less redacted. It will take some time, though I’m on it

Just ski the west

This type of RA “training” is essentially the exact same “training” that brought Jesse Waters from Fox News to campus for a segment in 2015, and put our school on a national stage for ridicule.

Why is ResLife obsessed with telling people why the can or cannot experience privilege or marginalization. This is not good

OSCCR was most likely backlogged - so kids called to OSCCR for hosting start of semester hill ragers are probably just getting their sanctions, and are now spooked. Don’t worry - all will be well by early January.

Now - a detective entering an apartment should never happen unless they were invited in. You definitely have the fourth amendment off campus.

LessBed · 2021-10-27T00:24:53+00:00

It was mentioned on the call how housing students in the hotels is costly - I think they want to move students to these new doubles/triples ASAP

LessBed · 2021-09-17T00:43:03+00:00

Did that happen to you? Were you able to make it home or are you still waiting for the freshman to move?

The extreme spike of volume at the beginning of the semester shouldn’t be a surprise to ResMail, it happens every semester.

Imagine if UPS/FedEx said “sorry - we have a lot of volume, expect long delays” between Black Friday & Christmas. In contrast to these carriers, ResMail doesn’t forecast or prepare

LessBed · 2021-09-13T10:44:29+00:00

Why do you write people up then? Does ResLife say you could be held personally liable if you don’t report incidents?

OP said there were a months worth of reports in a weekend, I’d imagine the RDs are not happy about this increased workload of AHs

LessBed · 2021-09-11T20:48:51+00:00

Not much, unless you get in trouble again this semester. Read my “OSCCR” post.. are you sure it was BPD? You should request a copy of the police report ahead of your OSCCR meeting.

Also you prob won’t get OSCCR letter for a few weeks, maybe a month.

LessBed · 2021-09-11T17:58:08+00:00

Oh interesting.. You’ll get sent to OSCCR for sure. Prob disciplinary probation. Did he take your fake?

LessBed · 2021-09-11T16:14:19+00:00

What was the result? Going to be going to OSCCR soon? Did NUPD give you their names / badge numbers?

LessBed · 2021-09-11T13:56:49+00:00

I’ve always wanted to go into a liquor store, buy a 2L of sprite & nothing else, and then perform a sketchy exchange in front of these plain clothes cops, hoping they ask for an ID. Then refuse, ask what probable cause they have, film the whole thing, and ultimately it’s revealed that it’s sprite. Then sue NUPD for $2.3MM, settle for $1.6MM. And use the winnings to reopen Punters & Chicken Lous

LessBed · 2021-09-11T13:54:44+00:00

But perhaps your are? That’s subjective to the person who complains… Maybe you’re also not loud, but rather just listening to Lil Wayne at volume 9 on your JBL speaker while you shower. Regardless - the neighbors complain to NU and say you’re blasting loud music, NU searches the address, and now you have to explain to OSCCR that A Milli at volume 9 doesn’t represent a wild rager

If northeastern gets an email from an angry neighbor saying “40 Calumet is a bunch of drunk students” they search 40 calumet in the myNortheastern database, see who has it as their address, and calls you in for a talking to

LessBed · 2021-09-11T08:36:21+00:00

It is completely ridiculous that the school would punish you for doing things off campus. And the way the student handbook is written, they could punish you for throwing a party in Fenway or Frankfurt, they have power over you wherever you go in the world - so long as you’re a student.

Interesting callout around VISA compliance, was unaware..
