Bits and Bobs
 
•    'The don't walk sign outside the Mass Av. steps flashes 15 times after the bleeping stops. Shaves those seconds off waiting to cross the road!
•    Baker residents: Washing machine number 2 doesn't charge your ID card.  Swipe it as normal and follow the instructions.  It will give an error message but you will still be able to do the wash.  75¢ savings each time!
•    Attend office hours if you can as they can be a great place to get to know your classmates and they can often help explain the problem set (p-set).
•    Junior Mints Rule!!!
•    Have a look at your p-set before recitations and office hours so you know what you need help with.
•    The American Milky Way is very similar to a British Mars bar!
•    You will need an 80¢ stamp to post a letter home. Stamps can be purchased from the post office in the Student Center basement.
•    The blue bin like things are letterboxes!
•    It is very hard to get an appointment with your doctor at MIT Medical but unless it is very serious, the nurses are generally suitable substitutes.
•    Take advantage of all the free food!
•    If you have any major worries or concerns go to the CMI office.
•    Above all, make time to rest and relax – it is the only way you will enjoy the ride.
