alright. i have asthma. and listen to my problem. i was allocated to Andrew Melville Hall. isn't the humidity like 98% at St A's? do you think if i speak with the Accomodation staff and get a note from my doctor that i'll be switched into a more centrally located hall? my parents are going ballistic over my health. annoying, but probably practical.
Although I have never measured the humidity in St Andrews, I feel I can say with some certainty that it's nowhere near 98%.
Surely when you applied for accommodation, you mentioned on the form that you had some problem with your health? Depending on your courses, you may find that Andrew Melville Hall is the most suitable for you. Accommodation Services may well have picked the best room for you, perhaps on the ground floor to avoid so many stairs.
Why are your parents going ballistic over your health? I can't see that helping much.
Let us know how you get on.
