[00:00.00]Listen to a conversation between a student and a university administrator.
[00:05.73]Student: Hi, I have some questions about the dormitory fire inspections. [00:09.58]I made an appointment to see you. My name's Marcia Travers.
[00:12.79]Administrator: You might ten thirty. [00:14.78]Right, So fire inspections are going on now. [00:18.00]You can check the university web page to see when your dorm will be inspected.
[00:21.97]Student: Mine was already done.
[00:24.00]Administrator: Right, I have your information right here should have looked at it more carefully. [00:29.00]Marsha Travers, single room...
[00:31.47]Student: I haven't gotten the report yet, but I wanted to explain about my extension cord. [00:35.80]I know it's a violation, but it was just temporary. [00:38.46]I was planning to move the furniture around this weekend, so the fridge would be closer to the electrical outlet. [00:43.81]And then I was gonna get rid of the extension cord.
[00:46.27]Administrator: Extension cords are against the rules, too. [00:49.87]The inspector must have missed it. So in fact, you have another violation.
[00:53.49]Student: oh my big mouth.
[00:55.18]Administrator: No, I’m glad you mentioned it. This is for your safety. [00:57.92]Everybody else is too. [00:59.46]There are no shortcuts with the fire cords here. [01:02.19]The real problem is the refrigerator. [01:04.80]The other problems are important, too, like the electric kettle, but the most urgent one is the fridge.
[01:10.31]Student: Right, I just heard that kettles are a violation, so mine spending the rest of the semester tucked away in my suitcase. [01:16.60]The refrigerator, I just bought it.
[01:19.60]Administrator: If you'd read the student handbook, you'd have seen that the regulations are very clear. [01:24.47]Students can only bring in models smaller than 5 cubic feet. [01:28.23]Your fridge is twice that size. It must take up half the room.
[01:32.16]Student: Do you have a copy of the handbook? [01:34.70]I don't think I ever got one.
[01:36.60]Administrator: I'll give you one before you leave.
[01:39.06]Student: Thanks. But I bought this refrigerator from another student, and she'd been using it for years, at least 2 years.
[01:46.36]Administrator: Then she didn't live in a standard dormitory.
[01:48.82]Student: She lived in Harper hall.
[01:50.64]Administrator: Harper hall is different. All the units there are suites, apartments, really with small kitchens. [01:56.57]Residents supply their own appliances like microwaves and fridges.
[02:00.87]Student: So the dorm rules about appliances don't apply there.
[02:04.44]Administrator: No, not at Harper hall.
[02:06.22]Student: Oh, Boy. And I was so pleased with my purchase. What do I do now?
[02:11.60]Administrator: You have 2 weeks to dispose of the fridge. [02:14.17]You can store it or sell it, but it can't stay in your room.
[02:17.62]Student: I can't believe this, and I had to rope in all my friends to help me get it up to the third floor. You have no idea.
[02:24.54]Administrator: How you got it up there without anyone stopping you. I don't know. [02:28.11]This is a first warning, though. So there's no fine. [02:31.14]If you can't find a buyer will pick it up. [02:33.24]And if you decide to hold on to it, will help you move it downstairs to the storage area.
