'''[[New Member OrientationInformation|New Member Information]]''' and the '''[[New Member Information|new member informationOrientation]]''' page addresses many frequently asked questions, but if you have an unaddressed question we hope to answer it here. <br>
<big>If you don't find the answer you're looking for, email the [[Vice President of Relations]] or [[President]].</big>
==== The internet is spotty in my suite. How do I get help? ====
Submit a [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeadGygL4eYuLNZI6kayMGLlFcpBWDeWqhP-qNz1ex-ZwklMg/viewform tech RFA form]. A member of the tech team will respond to any tech-related issues.
==== Can I move furniture out of my room?====
Yes! Provided that you do so without damaging the furniture, you may store unwanted room in the [[furniture room]]. Just note that you must put all furniture back in your room upon move-out.
==== How do I use the printer? ====
Submit a [https://docs.google.com/forms/u/2/d/e/1FAIpQLSfB-HW38ydNSNMaD_84L0EXOAahsmmsXSMedSvderASJ3-hLA/viewform Maintenance RFA] and a member of the maintenance team will respond and address the issue. It is everyone's responsibility to report issues when they are discovered so they can be resolved quickly. For most things, using a sticky note to show that an RFA has already been submitted is helpful since it saves your fellow housemates time.
If a TOILET IS FLOODING, or you discover a similarly urgent issue, send a message in the [[Escher DiscordServer|https://discord.com/invite/Xf7eHskmN7Discord]] with @MaintenanceManager and @MaintenanceTeam to get immediate assistance. If response there is not quick enough, contact the [[Maintenance Manager]] directly.
==== What are all my responsibilities exactly? Am Will I about to get in trouble for not doing something I didn't even know I was supposed had to do? ====
See the [[New Member Information]] page for a list of member responsibilities.
==== I can't make my work shift this week. How do I avoid a fine? ====
==== Can I really change anything I want here by asking the house to vote? ====
* Because you prefer the type of work to other house labor like kitchen cleaning
* To serve those around you in a big way!
==== Where can I store my stuff over the summer? ====
The [[Trunk Room]] provides deep storage to members in accordance with our Trunk Room policy (see the [https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzfIIXgFbHwNa1BNUW9NRk5ZYlk/view?usp=sharing standing rules]. This large room has enough space for a typical member to store all their belongings, which enables a convenient pattern: move everything to the trunk room in May when school lets out, then return to Escher in the fall and move everything back in. It is secured by a door code known only by house officers, so if you need access, reach out on in the #ask-an-officer thread on the [[Escher Discord Server|Discord]].
==== What is EscherFest? ====
[[Social Events#EscherFest | EscherFest]] is a music festival hosted by our coop (almost) every semester. Organized by the social chair, EscherFest brings popular local bands to the comfort of our [[Rec Room]]. This event is open to all, so feel free to invite your friends!
