9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[Music]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
- So right now we're standing [br]right in front of our

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
International Living/Learning Center

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
or 'ilc' for short.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Although the title includes [br]'International' in the name,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
it doesn't mean that you need to be

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
an 'international student' to apply here.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
can still be 'domestic' and from Canada[br]and still be considered.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
We're going to check out [br]two different room styles today,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which is the 'Single' and the 'Double.'

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Let's head on inside[br]and take a look!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
(ambient music)

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
(keys jingle)[br](door beeps)

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
A fun fact about[br]the International Living/Learning Centre,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is that it used to be a hotel[br]until it was bought by the university.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So it's a really neat type of room style

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which we'll be checking out.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
All of the suites in here [br]do have bathrooms

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which are inside the bedroom units.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So, it's great if you're looking

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
for a little bit more privacy [br]in that regard.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
are inside the bedroom units

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
We do have our ilc lounge [br]over to the side,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which is a great area if you want

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
to go ahead and do schoolwork [br]with friends,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
or just want a place to hang out[br]while you're doing some of your...

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
daily tasks, working on schoolwork,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
or just want to grab a bite to eat.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
We also have the cafeteria here

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
on the ground floor,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which we'll be taking a look at [br]in just a moment.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Here is one of the cafeterias[br]that we offer here at Ryerson Residence.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
This one is located [br]within the base of ilc,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but it's open to all students,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
across our buildings.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So no matter where you're living,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
you can still go ahead and access here.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
We have drink machines here on the side,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
lots of space for eating.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And then we have a sign right here,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
dedicated to how we really [br]support local foods

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and incorporate that into our processes.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So here in ilc if you are [br]living in this building,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
you would be enrolled [br]in the seven-day meal plan.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
However, students in the 5-day[br]meal plan, or also the 'Flex' option,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
we're just having dollars loaded[br]onto their account in a declining balance,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
would also be able to access this.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
As you can see right here, [br]we usually have a salad and soup bar.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
We have hot options,[br]which are provided on a daily basis.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And then we also have [br]a lot of different factors

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which go into consideration[br]for allergies,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
dietary restrictions,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and also just different options

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that rotate throughout the week,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
so that you don't become bored.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And let's go ahead and go up

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
to the Residence Tower,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
where we can go ahead [br]and take a look at the rooms!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So now we're standing in front [br]of the resident security desk

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
for the International Living [br]/ Learning Centre.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
We provide 24/7 security at

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
all of our residence buildings,[br]with ilc included within that.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So we usually, during the school year,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
have a student member[br]during the school day

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
located here at this desk,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
who is able to help you with mail,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
packages, or anything else [br]that you may need during your stay

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
including signing in guests.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
They will go ahead and allow you

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
to go ahead and scan [br]your residence ID right here

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
before you go ahead[br]and take the elevator bank

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
up to see the Residence Tower.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Let's go ahead and take a look!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
(elevator beeps)

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Alright, so right now we're just

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
stepping onto one of our floors [br]here in ilc.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So let's go ahead and take a look

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
at what that looks like.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
We have our common lounge [br]when you step out of the elevators,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which would be a great area [br]for you to go ahead and meet

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
for weekly meetings [br]with your residence advisor.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And you can see [br]all these opportunities right here,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which would usually be located[br]on the calendar.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So come the school year,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
it is full-to-the-brim

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
with everything happening each day.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Here in ilc, we also have

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
a common lounge area,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which is fantastic for going ahead

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and fitting all of your cooking needs.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So even though you're enrolled[br]in the seven-day meal plan

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and have the cafeteria down below,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
just right on the ground level,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
you also can use this at any time

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
if you want to cook a late night snack,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
or just store some food,[br]for your own use.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Let's go ahead and take a look

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
at what our room styles look like here.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Great, so now we're going to go ahead and

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
access elk at which you would also use

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
your key insert it right in the door and

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
then take a step in

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
so as you can see it's a very bright and

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
sunny unit

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
when you take a step in you can take in

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
the view

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which is great of the downtown

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
here would be your bed which you could

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
go ahead and customize the way you want

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
with putting a lot of pictures behind

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
you a lot of students like to string up

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
lights in their units do anything that

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
really just makes you feel like you're

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
at home

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
there's also all the furniture that you

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
see here included with the unit

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
so there would be

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
all of

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
these dressers

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
desks

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which interesting fun fact that you

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
might not realize but this is a cork

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
board which you could go ahead and

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
pin things to if you want to have your

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
calendar reminders to-do notes anything

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that might be useful to you

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
each unit here also comes included with

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
air conditioning and heating which you

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
can go ahead and change yourself right

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
here

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
[Music]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
storage is included on both sides of

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
this unit which would allow you lots of

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
space to go ahead and hang up your dress

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
shirts

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
or jackets whatever you may have to face

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
the canadian winters

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
let's go ahead and take a look at the

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
bathroom unit which is right here

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
so as you can see here in elk you do

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
have your personal bathroom which is

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
great for your use

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
it's really nice for the privacy

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
purposes of just having this located

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
right inside your unit so if that's

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
something you're looking for it's a very

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
unique setup that is specific to our

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
international living learning center

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
now let's go ahead and take a look at

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
what else elk has to offer

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
one more thing that is really close to

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
the resident service desk is also your

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
mailbox so if you're living here at elk

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
you'll go ahead and be assigned a key to

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
one of these mailboxes which is great if

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
you want to get snail mail from home i

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
really loved it during my first year

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
getting postcards from family members

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and friends

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and it's really convenient too if you do

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
want packages

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
they're going to be sent to the

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
residence service desk where you can go

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
ahead and get those for pickup

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
alright so now we'll be heading outside

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
of elk once again

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
