FOURTH YEARS STRANDED OVER CLEARING AND REBOOKING DIRECTIVES
The fourth years have remained confused over the directives given by the accommodation department and the director of accommodation. According to a memo released early this week, the fourth years were required to clear out of their rooms and acquire their clearing codes before they leave for their short holiday. A memo then followed shortly from the ICT stating that the retaining of rooms begins 15th to 20th August. Days later, the director of security and accommodation also gave his directive that no fourth year should clear from his room until further directions from him. As the deadline approaches, most elders are still stranded on whose directive to follow.
