I recently just got put on a quiet floor (not at my request), and was wondering what the quiet floors at your school were like. For me, the quiet period begins at 7pm and ends at 10 am. What I'm hoping to happen is that the majority of the residents will decide that they don't want it to be a quiet floor. Some extra questions:Were the quiet floors enforced well?Did people on the quiet floor actually want quiet?Was it fun? (probably not)
My friend was the RA of the quiet floor last year. Trust me, she enforced quiet hours, even when her friends visited her. Her residents had fun though. They weren't drunk and partying at 3 in the morning on the floor. But they still hung out, played video games, talked, went out, etc. If you don't want to live on the quiet floor, see if you can switch to a different floor.
The people who requested to live on the floor actually DO want quiet, and you need to respect that. Trust me, for those of us who wanted to live on quiet floors, our neighbors who disregarded the quiet rules were considered extremely rude and annoying. In many cases it can actually be difficult to get a spot on a quiet floor because many people actually want to live there. If you want to make noise, go visit a friend who doesn't live on a quiet floor and have a party there. You don't have to be noisy in your own room and rude to your floormates to have fun. I loved living on a quiet floor, when my neighbors were actually mature enough to follow the floor rules and be quiet.
