  儲物箱接受走讀生申請
 
書院於曾肇添樓地下一零九室設有儲物箱,供走讀生借用。書院學生可由2011年9月8日至9月30日於辦公時間內親往曾肇添樓二樓學生輔導處辦理借用手續。由於儲物箱數量有限,除特殊情況外,書院一概不接受宿生或已獲學系分配儲物箱之同學申請借用。

儲物箱之借用規則如下:
1) 借用者須繳付儲物箱鎖匙的按金港幣五十元正。請透過匯豐銀行或恒生銀行自動櫃員機將按金轉帳至香港中文大學戶口293-005005-001,並帶同自動櫃員機收據前往學生輔導處申請。
2) 借用者須保持儲物箱整潔,並避免於箱內存放貴重物品。
3) 同學可自行決定借用年期,借用期最長為畢業學年5月31日止。唯書院可能在有需要情況下,不再提供儲物箱借用服務,屆時將另行通知借用同學。
4) 借用期屆滿前,借用者須清理箱內物品,並親往曾肇添樓二樓書院學生輔導處歸還箱匙。書院將安排透過自動轉賬方式把按金退回借用者之存款戶口內。
5) 倘遺失儲物箱鎖匙,按金概不發還。 借用者如需續用儲物箱,必須重新辦理借用手續。
6) 倘逾期辦理退箱手續,按金概不發還,儲物箱內之物品將列作棄置物品處理。

如有查詢,請致電3943 7573與書院學生輔導處張富恒先生聯絡。
