Advantages of taking courses taught in Allen Hall • Allen Hall students get first priority for registration • Classes are typically small (5 – 30) • Classmates are hall mates • This makes in-class discussion and out-of-class cooperation much better • Instructors have meal passes to make informal meetings easier to arrange, and budgets for extra-class activities • These courses go on your transcript as regular University courses
Unit One/Allen Hall students can take as many Unit One courses per semester as they wish. • We recommend at least one a semester, and one fine arts course in your first year. • Most students take around 1-4 Unit One courses per year.
The Unit One Courses Timetable for Fall 2009 is available online at our website and in “Welcome to Your Neighborhood” booklet It includes this information: • Course number and title • Time/day/place • Credit hours • CRN (course reference number) • Section designation • General Education requirement designation
We categorize our courses in this way: • “Regular” U of I Courses • Fine Arts Courses • Discovery Courses • Unit One Special Topics Courses • Music Lessons
Regular Courses • Same as classes offered on the rest of campus but are held in Allen Hall • Some classes fulfill General Education requirements and some are electives • Tend to be smaller and more interactive than the same class held elsewhere
Fine Arts Courses • Unique to Allen Hall • Make use of Allen Hall arts facilities • Open to all Unit One/Allen Hall students • The core of the Unit One curriculum

MUSIC LESSONS • Students at all levels, from beginner through advanced, take part in these lessons. • Most private instruction students study piano, voice, or guitar but we try to find teachers for all other instruments that are requested. • Students study whatever style of music that they want to learn. • We have three 24-hour music practice rooms with pianos plus two other acoustic and two other electric pianos (not keyboards). These facilities are open to all Allen Hall students.
We hold an on-line lottery on the first day of class to allocate our 180 spaces in this private instruction class. • Students get 12 lessons/semester. • Lessons are one half hour long. • This course is graded S/U (Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory) on the basis of completing these 12 lessons. • Most of our instructors are graduate students in the School of Music.
UNIT ONE/ALLEN HALLFRESHMAN ORIENTATION • You are invited to attend a special orientation for Unit One/Allen Hall students. • Move-In for this orientation is on Tuesday, August 18. • Orientation begins at 5 PM on the 18th. • (Regular U of I Move-In is Thursday, August 20, and U of I Freshman Orientation runs through Sunday, August 23.) • Most Unit One/Allen Hall first year students attend this orientation….about 300. Information sessions, parties, facilities tours, meet the staff, make new friends. • This orientation is produced by returning students. The main agenda is to help you to quickly meet other students and learn about the special features of the program. • The cost is $30. This covers your pre-contract meals and a T-shirt. • This orientation is a great way to get a jump start on life in Allen Hall. • If you have a conflict, you can arrive late. • If you can’t make it, you’ll be ok. • A registration brochure will be mailed mid-summer or check the Unit One web site. • Go to the Unit One website to see more.
AUGUST MOVE-IN • When you come to campus, a group of returning students, Illini Guides (I Guides), will move your stuff into your room. Just park your car in front of the hall and they’ll take care of the heavy work. • HINT: Pack your stuff in boxes that others can readily handle; identify your boxes with name and room #. • I Guides are on duty August 18. • On other days, we’ll have carts for you.
UNIT ONE/ALLEN HALLIN ACTION The next few slides will give you an idea of • move-in • room set-ups • Allen Hall facilities
Move-In I-guides will help you move your stuff. Please pack so it is easy to move.
Standard Double Room • Bunked Beds with extra long-twin mattresses and mattress pads • Two Desks • Two three drawer dressers • Two under-the-bed pull out drawers • Two chairs • Two waste baskets • Two closets (your own room key is the exclusive key to your closet) • You can request that your beds be reconfigured to one bed “high” and one bed “regular” OR both beds “regular” • You can make this request before you move in: Go to (http://www.housing.illinois.edu) and look at announcements. • Only building service workers are allowed to reconfigure your beds.
Your room will probably look like this when you move in unless you make a request for another configuration.
High and low beds with low bed pushed under high bed to save floor space. Desks and dressers (all same height) on same wall.Permanent shelves & mirrors on right and left walls, fan in window.
Storage available under high bed including mini-fridge and microwave Desk to right; full view of wall unit: bulletin board, mirror, shelves.
Desks and dressers on one wall make a long surface.Telephone and computer jacks on left wall (bring your own phone.) We have computer jacks. You can run more than one computer simultaneously. There is also a computer lab in the bldg open 24 hours.
These students brought a TV. All rooms are cable ready. Local, multi-channel cable package comes with your URH contract. You can buy premium channels.Most people have carpets. You’ll get a letter soliciting you to purchase one through a student group, but you can surely bring your own.
You have lots of leeway for decorating your room. Just make sure to mount stuff in ways that don’t take the paint off the walls.
With some creative arranging, you can fit extra furniture into your room. These folks added a couch and a chair (but probably put some furniture in their closet).
Most first year residents are not assigned to Quads.But FYI, here are two views of the same room:
The following slides show some of the spaces in Unit One/Allen Hall.
