Bilkent Etiquette
|
|
Thank you, thank you, and thank you! Your positive responses to last week’s column were overwhelming. I am, truly humbled by the congratulatory remarks I have received within the past week, and here I am, back with more items to include in “Bilkent Etiquette”, also known as “the manners that qualify you to become a true Bilkenter!” Let us see how well you do on the following this week (“very well”, I can already hear you say!)
I do not park illegally
I do not use cuss words in public
I do not confiscate a computer terminal in a lab for hours for a personal chit chat on the internet
I return my library books before or on the due date
I pay my library fines regularly
I do not vandalize library books by scribbling on them and/or by ripping some pages off
I clean up my mess after I use the kitchen facilities in the dormitories
I turn down my music in the dormitory to an acceptable level rather than a rock-concert decibel at the Odeon
I turn off the lights in my room when I leave
I do not miss any classes unless I am sick in bed or hospitalized due to an emergency
If you are missing one, that's OK, there is always room for improvement. If you are missing two, then try a little harder to live up to expectations. If you are missing three, then be careful and waste no time in becoming a true Bilkenter. If you are missing four or more, well, maybe you should see a counselor for help immediately!
