a. Quiet Hours

  1. Cloyne Court house-wide quiet hours are from 11 pm to 9 am on Sunday through Thursday and 1 am to 10 am Friday through Saturday. Noise loud enough to disturb someone who is inside their own room with the door closed or in a quiet study room with the doors closed is prohibited during quiet hours.
  2. Members disturbed by noise during quiet hours may ask that the source of noise be reduced to an acceptable level or that associated activities be ceased if necessary.  Members may also ask a coordinator to do this for them, in which case anonymity is to be maintained by default.
  3. Members who violate quiet hours may be fined for failure to adequately respond to a complaint.  Members may be fined and face additional disciplinary action for egregious or repeated violations of quiet hours.
  4. In accordance with Cloyne’s lease with the University of California, members are required to respect the Goldman School of Public Policy’s (GSPP) Quiet Hours from 8 am to 5 pm on Monday through Friday. Residents of Cloyne should refrain from activities in the courtyard that would violate the GSPP Quiet Hours.
  5. Members who, through their activities, violate GSPP quiet hours may be fined accordingly. Members will face additional disciplinary action for failure to reduce the source of noise to an acceptable level or cease associated activities when notified that they are in violation of GSPP quiet hours.
  6. Activities loud enough to disturb someone in a designated 24-hour quiet study space are prohibited at all times during which that space is in use.  The constraints and procedures of house-wide quiet hours as outlined above apply to these spaces whenever they are in use.
