==At doors==

#*Don't take other people's ingredients. Don't use other people's cookware to store your food in. In fact, try to avoid using other people's cookware altogether, and, if you really must do so, do it so they aren't aware of the fact that you used their cookware (clean it, and don't do a half-assed job, either).

# Don't throw your old sardines, or any other stinky refuse, into the bathroom trash can. There is a trash room.

# Don't destroy or abuse property. Particularly not if it belongs to somebody else.

# If you yak or see someone yak in a place that's a bit out of the way -- a basement, far-off corner, or anywhere that isn't a toilet, really -- make your best effort to tell someone responsible that there's a stinky, biohazardous mess on the floor.

# Make sure the toilet actually flushes when you go. It's gross to have to flush someone else's bodily functions for them.

# Put seats down on toilets after you use them- not everyone can pee standing up.

=== In laundry rooms ===

# If you go outside to [[smoking|smoke]], for crying out loud, throw away your cigarette butts when you're done. Littering is not cool, ever, and this is no exception.

#If you have a plastic/glass/aluminum container to toss, but the nearest public recycling bin is full, hang onto it until you come to one that isn't full rather than making a pile on top of the bin. The [[facilities]] staff should not have to remove dozens of empty bottles sitting on top of the container before they empty it.

==In [[classes]]==

# Don't fall asleep in a discussion class. [[Coffee]] is your friend.

# If you take notes on a laptop, especially in a large, dimly-let lecture (say, ARTH 101), turn the brightness down. It's easier on everyone's eyes--including your own!

#* Also, if you're "taking notes" on your laptop, don't make it too obvious that you're checking your email or watching video clips on YouTube. Resist the temptation to yell "Haw! Haw! That dog's wearin' a baseball cap!"

==Cell phones==
