I believe we talked about this on IRC. I believe the 3AM maximum is fine for having shifts of our people at the door (and probably we could ask people to stick around a bit longer if they are staying awake, although not as a volunteered responsability). However... This other entrance "for travel arrivals only" will definitively not be available for people staying up late?

I mean, I don't expect to be College policy to require people to pay all of their media licenses to Apple services, but... :-] Thanks!
