New members often feel like they're in the dark when they first move Welcome to Escher. The '''[https://icc.coop/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Escher-House-Constitution.pdf House Constitution]''' and ! Many of our questions are answered on our [[Frequently Asked Questions|'''FAQ''']] page may also help answer your questions, but the purpose of this page is gives you a quick primer on what you need to list all member responsibilities so know when you can rest easy knowing you havenmove into our house. More detailed and term-relevant information will be given at Fall Orientation. '''t forgotten anythingThis information is not a substitute for Fall Orientation, which all members, new and returning, are expected to attend.''' 
<br>
<big>'''Failure to uphold these responsibilities could result in a fine(s).''' Please email the [[President]] or other relevant [[officers]] if you have any questions or concerns.</big>
* '''[[Work Holiday]]''' occurs once each semester, near the beginning of the term. You are required to sign up for [[Work Holiday]] or sign up to complete four hours of work at a later date if you are unavailable. Keep an eye on your email for more information about the date and expectations.
** If you moved in after the start of a contract period, you can email the [[Work Manager]] to see if [[Work Holiday]] has happened yet or not.
* Read the current '''[bit.ly/escher-covid-policy COVID Policy]''' to understand how masking and quarantining works at each house 'level'.
* Update your '''mailing address''' when you move in and anytime you move to a room in a different suite. See the [[suites]] page for the mailing addresses.
* When you notice something is broken or malfunctioning in the house, submit a Request for Assistance, or [RFA]. The two types are [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfB-HW38ydNSNMaD_84L0EXOAahsmmsXSMedSvderASJ3-hLA/viewform '''Maintenance RFA'''] and [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeadGygL4eYuLNZI6kayMGLlFcpBWDeWqhP-qNz1ex-ZwklMg/viewform '''Tech RFA'''].
* Attend officer meetings if you have suggestions to share. While some officer meeting discussions must necessarily be private, you are welcome to attend the regular officer meetings that occur twice a month. Each of these meetings will have a Member Time period where you can raise concerns directly with a room full of officers.
** If you take issue with something an officer has done, but do not want to bring it up to them directly, contact your suite's [[House Council]] member. They can keep your complaint anonymous if you wish and work with you to determine how best to rectify the situation.
* [https://discord.com/invite/Xf7eHskmN7 Join the [[Escher Discord Server|Discord]]. Though email is the primary form of house communication, the Discord serves as a quick way to share information with with suitemates, housemates, and [[officers]]. It has become increasingly relied upon in recent years and so I highly recommend everyone to join. Plus, many morale & [[Culture Shift|culture]]-building memes are shared there!
* Explore and contribute to this wiki, and the [[Escher Member Drive]].
* Communicate with your housemates and aim for conflict resolution at the lowest level. If you need extra assistance, contact someone relevant and/or trusted on the [[Current Leadership|house leadership]] team.
