As you all know, the Smith Hall elevator has been out of service for the majority of the second semester and yet we are still paying full price. I do not think that we should be paying full price for a building that is not in full service. I understand that MassArt is doing what they can to make sure this is not an issue in the future and I appreciate that, but I still believe that we should receive some sort of reimbursement for limited service the elevator has provided. Please show that you are also disappointed with the service provided by joining me and signing this petition. Please feel free to spread this link around.

Asking us to accept a full bill despite services being inaccessible is asking too much of the students, especially the ones paying out-of-pocket for their housing.

Having to pay for an elevator that does work is ridiculous. We move out in a couple of days and having to carry a fridge down 5 flights of stairs is impossible. Not to mention that it was out when I moved in so it make everything extremely difficult. .

I am so displeased with the elevator service during this year, I have not only had injuries worsened but also have had injuries caused by taking the stairs and having to carry large art projects, as well as suitcases and carts during the packing process. I do not think that it's fair to anyone injured or handicapped that they should be subjected to this, nor do I feel that the residence has done a good job making massart accessible to everyone.

It really doesn’t make sense that these students pay thousands of dollars for housing but they have to struggle with the elevator. Y’all make students go up five flights of stairs like they told you they wanted a free workout program. If they wanted to work out they would go to gym. Fix it massart

I pay too much money for my elevator to not work properly for the amount of time that it hadn't/hasn't worked. Kind of ridiculous.
