Student Leaders

Although CDOs will respond at any time if you have a genuine problem, being without your key after 11 pm is not necessarily an emergency and you should consider staying in a friend’s room rather than waking the CDO.

If you are repeatedly locked out (more than three times in a semester) you may be fined.

While on duty, the CDO has the delegated authority of the Junior Deans. The Warden and Resident staff remain responsible for discipline of resident undergraduate community members throughout the semester. After hours, they are rostered on-call to attend to matters that Junior Deans bring to their attention.

RECEPTION

Often the first port of call for general queries is the College Reception, located on the ground floor of the Albert Building (reception@stpauls.edu.au or 9550-7444). Our Receptionist and Operations Assistant is Mrs Amanda O’Yang (9550-7447; officeadmin@stpauls.edu.au).

Most College staff members have offices in the Albert Building, accessed either through Reception or the Albert Staircase.

COMMON ROOMS

Common rooms at St Paul’s are both communities and physical rooms within the College. Members are encouraged to use and enjoy these spaces for reading, study, board games, College meetings, and, of course, conversation.

Members of College belong to either the Junior Common Room (JCR) (undergraduates), Middle Common Room (MCR) (graduate students), or the Senior Common Room (SCR) (Fellows, academics and other senior staff, and resident/visiting academics).

The Junior Common Room and Senior Common Room are next to the Dining Hall in the Quadrangle (behind the cloisters) and the Middle Common Room is on the ground floor of the McMillan Building.

As communities, the main objects of the JCR and MCR are to promote the interests and welfare of, and social activities among, resident students and to represent the interests of their members.

Members of the SCR dine on High Table, together with invited guests. Junior Deans, Members of the MCR, senior undergraduates and other students with an involvement in the academic life of the College may be invited to dine on High Table.
