Once through the entrance turnstiles

Bottled soft drinks and water are permitted as well as drinks in re-useable cups with lids (e.g. KeepCups) and thermos flasks.
Disposable cups are not permitted. This is in support of the University’s environmental initiatives and ‘leave no trace’ campaign to reduce waste.

Levels 1, 3, 4 and 5 are designated’ quiet’ – some noise is permitted as long as you are not disturbing your fellow students.
