99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
[Music]

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
- So right now we're standing 
right in front of our

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
International Living/Learning Center

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
or 'ilc' for short.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Although the title includes 
'International' in the name,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
it doesn't mean that you need to be

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
an 'international student' to apply here.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
can still be 'domestic' and from Canada
and still be considered.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
We're going to check out 
two different room styles today,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
which is the 'Single' and the 'Double.'

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Let's head on inside
and take a look!

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
(ambient music)

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
(keys jingle)
(door beeps)

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
A fun fact about
the International Living/Learning Centre,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
is that it used to be a hotel
until it was bought by the university.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So it's a really neat type of room style

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
which we'll be checking out.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
All of the suites in here 
do have bathrooms

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
which are inside the bedroom units.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So, it's great if you're looking

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
for a little bit more privacy 
in that regard.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
are inside the bedroom units

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
We do have our ilc lounge 
over to the side,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
which is a great area if you want

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
to go ahead and do schoolwork 
with friends,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
or just want a place to hang out
while you're doing some of your...

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
daily tasks, working on schoolwork,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
or just want to grab a bite to eat.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
We also have the cafeteria here

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
on the ground floor,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
which we'll be taking a look at 
in just a moment.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Here is one of the cafeterias
that we offer here at Ryerson Residence.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
This one is located 
within the base of ilc,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
but it's open to all students,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
across our buildings.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So no matter where you're living,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
you can still go ahead and access here.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
We have drink machines here on the side,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
lots of space for eating.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
And then we have a sign right here,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
dedicated to how we really 
support local foods

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and incorporate that into our processes.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So here in ilc if you are 
living in this building,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
you would be enrolled 
in the seven-day meal plan.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
However, students in the 5-day
meal plan, or also the 'Flex' option,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
we're just having dollars loaded
onto their account in a declining balance,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
would also be able to access this.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
As you can see right here, 
we usually have a salad and soup bar.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
We have hot options,
which are provided on a daily basis.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
And then we also have 
a lot of different factors

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
which go into consideration
for allergies,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
dietary restrictions,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and also just different options

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
that rotate throughout the week,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
so that you don't become bored.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
And let's go ahead and go up

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
to the Residence Tower,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
where we can go ahead 
and take a look at the rooms!

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So now we're standing in front 
of the resident security desk

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
for the International Living 
/ Learning Centre.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
We provide 24/7 security at

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
all of our residence buildings,
with ilc included within that.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So we usually, during the school year,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
have a student member
during the school day

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
located here at this desk,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
who is able to help you with mail,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
packages, or anything else 
that you may need during your stay

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
including signing in guests.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
They will go ahead and allow you

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
to go ahead and scan 
your residence ID right here

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
before you go ahead
and take the elevator bank

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
up to see the Residence Tower.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Let's go ahead and take a look!

NOTE Paragraph

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
(elevator beeps)

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Alright, so right now we're just

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
stepping onto one of our floors 
here in ilc.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So let's go ahead and take a look

NOTE Paragraph

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
at what that looks like.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
We have our common lounge 
when you step out of the elevators,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
which would be a great area 
for you to go ahead and meet

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
for weekly meetings 
with your residence advisor.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
And you can see 
all these opportunities right here,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
which would usually be located
on the calendar.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So come the school year,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
it is full-to-the-brim

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
with everything happening each day.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Here in ilc, we also have

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
a common lounge area,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
which is fantastic for going ahead

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and fitting all of your cooking needs.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
So even though you're enrolled
in the seven-day meal plan

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and have the cafeteria down below,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
just right on the ground level,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
you also can use this at any time

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
if you want to cook a late night snack,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
or just store some food,
for your own use.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Let's go ahead and take a look

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
at what our room styles look like here.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Great, so now we're going to go ahead and

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
access elk at which you would also use

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
your key insert it right in the door and

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
then take a step in

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
so as you can see it's a very bright and

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
sunny unit

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
when you take a step in you can take in

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
the view

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
which is great of the downtown

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
here would be your bed which you could

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
go ahead and customize the way you want

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
with putting a lot of pictures behind

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
you a lot of students like to string up

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
lights in their units do anything that

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
really just makes you feel like you're

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
at home

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
there's also all the furniture that you

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
see here included with the unit

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
so there would be

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
all of

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
these dressers

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
desks

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
which interesting fun fact that you

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
might not realize but this is a cork

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
board which you could go ahead and

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
pin things to if you want to have your

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
calendar reminders to-do notes anything

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
that might be useful to you

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
each unit here also comes included with

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
air conditioning and heating which you

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
can go ahead and change yourself right

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
here

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
[Music]

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
storage is included on both sides of

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
this unit which would allow you lots of

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
space to go ahead and hang up your dress

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
shirts

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
or jackets whatever you may have to face

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
the canadian winters

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
let's go ahead and take a look at the

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
bathroom unit which is right here

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
so as you can see here in elk you do

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
have your personal bathroom which is

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
great for your use

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
it's really nice for the privacy

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
purposes of just having this located

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
right inside your unit so if that's

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
something you're looking for it's a very

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
unique setup that is specific to our

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
international living learning center

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
now let's go ahead and take a look at

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
what else elk has to offer

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
one more thing that is really close to

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
the resident service desk is also your

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
mailbox so if you're living here at elk

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
you'll go ahead and be assigned a key to

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
one of these mailboxes which is great if

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
you want to get snail mail from home i

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
really loved it during my first year

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
getting postcards from family members

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and friends

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and it's really convenient too if you do

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
want packages

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
they're going to be sent to the

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
residence service desk where you can go

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
ahead and get those for pickup

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
alright so now we'll be heading outside

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
of elk once again

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
thank you so much for visiting us on

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
this tour of elk we do also have double

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
rooms which we're not currently showing

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
off during this tour but we do have

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
diagrams which are available and we'll

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
be posting right now

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
so just to recap we have our

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
single bedroom

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and we have our double bedrooms which

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
are available within elk

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
all of these units come with the seven

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
day meal plan which can go ahead and be

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
used at the elk cafeteria located on the

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
ground level

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
or also at the pitman cafeteria if you

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
wish to switch things up

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
we also have a lot of really great space

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
here in the common lounge to go ahead

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and spend with your residence advisor in

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
academic link for different programming

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
and this building is home to living

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
learning communities

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
including entrepreneurship and

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
innovation

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
as well as fashion

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
thank you so much for tuning in and we

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
hope to see you in our next video take

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
care

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
you
