College Facilities

Our building

Janet Clarke Hall is a beautiful, heritage-listed building, and as such, is architecturally unique and
historically significant. Please be aware of, and ready to help with, the upkeep of corridors,
common rooms, gardens and other public spaces. The condition of the JCR, The Bage and the
Rooftop Courtyard are the particular responsibility of the Student Club.

Maintenance
If you notice the need for something to be repaired, either in your room or elsewhere, please

make a note for the Facilities Manager, Bruce, in the repair book located on the display cabinet in
the foyer, or email facilities@jch.unimelb.edu.au. We aim to introduce a new online maintenance
reporting system during the 2024 academic year and will inform you when this is up and running.

Tutorial rooms

When not otherwise occupied, tutorial rooms including Henderson House may be used by
students as quiet study spaces. These spaces are common rooms for all students and must be
shared equally; therefore, your belongings must be removed when you are not using the space.

The same rules apply to the Library. If you are taking part in any online classes, it is best to use a
more private location (i.e., your bedroom) to avoid disturbing other students. Drinks, but not food,
are allowed in the tutorial rooms and the Library.

Computer facilities

The College has four public computers for student use. These computers are located in the Library.
These and other IT facilities are administered and maintained by the College’s IT support providers,
Spirit. As with all aspects of the College, you are expected to treat these resources respectfully.

Please do not remove the computers or any of their equipment from the Library. Due to the age
of the College buildings, it is strongly recommended you use a surge protector for all IT & electrical
equipment in your room. You are responsible for maintaining your IT equipment and keeping it
safe. Please do not leave your items, especially laptops, unattended in tutorial rooms for security

reasons.
