LTSU Res Campaign
By Skye Griffiths
Hey everyone!
In the next coming days you might see some posters around Res - The LTSU is calling for better conditions for students living in Residential colleges! We need your help to ensure that res students are able to have adequate living standards that they deserve and pay for.
To do this, we need to hear the worst-of-the-worst Res Horror Stories! We want to hear your bad experiences on res; be it untimely maintenance requests, to a lack of heating, to a water pipe burst. Whatever it is, we want to hear it! And those who submit have a chance of winning a $25 COLES voucher.
OUR PROPOSAL: We want to see mandatory maintenance periods in place for on-campus accommodation! If repairs aren't completed in an adequate timeframe, students should be entitled to a reduction in rent.
If you're a student living on Res, you can fill out the form by clicking the link below or scanning the QR code on any posters you see. When you submit a Res Horror Story, you'll also get a chance to win a $25 COLES Voucher! Submit your Res Horror Stories Here Form
We are determined to make living on res a better experience for all students so keep an eye out for the LTSU’s Res campaign!
