SAFEnet Advisory 
Safenet
 
With warm weather around the corner, Boston's cyclists will be out in full force. Consider these safety tips next time you hop on your bike!
 
Lock up your bike with a chain and U-lock. Most stolen bikes were only secured with a chain, don't become a victim!
Keep records of your bike's serial number, its description and cost. Save these in a safe spot.
Register your bike for $5 with NUPD at 716 Columbus Ave.
Wear reflective clothing at night to alert drivers.
Never lock your bike to handrails on building steps or ramps! Pedestrians need clear walkways.

Medical Amnesty

When having a good time with your friends, we sometimes underestimate the effect that alcohol has on decision making. Some ways to keep out of harm's way include:
Plan a safe way to get home.
Remain cautious and be aware of your surroundings.
Look out for your friends and neighbors.
Call for help if you need it.
  
Medical Amnesty Policy
If you or a friend need medical attention, you can call for help without fear of an alcohol violation. You MUST stay with your friend. Learn more HERE. For questions, email or follow @OSCCR_NU on Twitter. 

Northeastern's biggest display of international food, music and events is here! Carnevale 2014: a passport to Northeastern, a passport to the World continues this month with great opportunities to broaden your horizons and meet fellow Huskies with diverse backgrounds and cultures. Full schedule here!
Ask a Roaming Husky
Dear Roaming Husky  
Dear Roaming Husky
,
My friends and I have found an apartment we're interested in, but we're confused by our lease. I'm not sure if terms in the lease conflict with other rules in the addendum. Can you help?
- Legally Confused
 
Dear Legally Confused,
We're happy to review the lease with you before you sign. It's important to understand all of the rules and expectations stipulated in your lease. Many landlords also include an addendum with additional rules beyond the lease. Schedule a time to discuss your lease with us and get your questions answered!
