Self Catering
The College is a corporate
body and undergraduate eating arrangements are intended to be communal.
We do not offer self-catering accommodation in College or in the
Colony. None of our buildings, or their electrical circuits, were
designed to provide food storage and cooking facilities on a large
scale. All students (apart from the rare exemptions in special circumstances)
contribute to the maintenance of the catering establishment through
the Kitchen Fixed Charge. Facilities in the gyp-rooms are intended
to be adequate for light meals and snacks but not for regular full-scale
cooking. Remember that others may use the same facilities, so you
should ensure that the washing-up is done promptly and that you
leave the gyp-room clean and tidy. The over-use or mis-use of cooking
facilities and appliances is among the most frequent causes of damage
to rooms (for which you are then charged).
Communal areas, such as landings,
are not dining rooms and must not be used for meals.
Electric kettles, toasters
and microwave ovens are provided by the College in gyp-rooms and
may not be used in College rooms. All other appliances
(eg sandwich-makers, slow cookers and saucepans) must be used only
in gyp-rooms only. In certain circumstances (medical, dietary or
religious reasons), and subject to special permission from the Steward,
you may be allowed to install your own fridge or freezer in your
room. Conventional electrical ovens (e.g. Baby Belling), electric
grills, rice or pressure cookers must not be brought into
the College.
