Until I get a car (late October) I'm obviously preferential to Student Union. Otherwise, I would choose the private residences, just to not deal with hours/parking situation. And we get to choose our own food.

Student Union is now open 24 hours from Monday-Friday

wow why is movie night at student union so terribly strict

it'd probably get a large following of people if they loosened up

Are you sure they check about movies? They normally just wheel a laptop and projector into the room, and leave.

Reservations can be a pain, but this should be scheduled.

I don't think the time is a bad con.

You can bring food from down stairs and eat it. Pretty sure you can have snacks and such, you just aren't suppose to serve a full dinner.

Decals really don't matter, since it is a movie "night". After I think 5:30 they stop ticketing, as long as you don't park in 24/7 reserved.

(Looks like you listed a lot of negatives for the Union, and less for your place. )

Was this before or after the switch to making the Union 24 hrs?

Sorry, forgot to add netflix streaming. Also, UCF Golden Rule applies, but if someone promises the DVD they're bringing in is just a back-up copy, I can't complain.

Bs they stop ticketing after 5:30. I got pinged after 7 on a Friday at Knight for gamers. Two years ago. Unless the policy had changed
