Desk Services
During the year, several university residences have centrally located service desks to provide students access to Housing and Dining Services, provide a link to building and campus resources, observe activities in the front entrance of the building and report issues to the appropriate staff.
Private areas of residence halls are only permitted to Carnegie Mellon students, their escorted guests and authorized representatives of the university. To gain access to a building that has a service desk, a person must use an ID card reader and/or show his or her university ID to the attendant.
Locations
The following locations are managed by seven desk managers and two graduate coordinators (Devvon Horn and Thom Julian); opening 24-hour everyday during the Fall and Spring semesters.
