Unit 3

UCPD officers arrested a man Thursday night at Unit 3 for an outstanding felony warrant that alleges failure to register as a sex offender. 

After an initial email was sent out to students Oct. 14, Treeline Security, a private vendor, has started patrolling Units 1, 2 and 3 regularly at night.

In the coming days, students living in UC Berkeley's residence halls may notice increased patrol presence around Units 1, 2, and 3 from 6:30 p.m. to 2:30 a.m.

According to a UC Berkeley subreddit page, some residents of campus’ Channing-Bowditch apartments have been living with broken lights and plumbing problems for a few weeks. Attempts to contact the emergency maintenance team have been unsuccessful, according to the post thread, with students reportedly being told the maintenance team is understaffed and unable to provide a timeline for response to requests.  

Amid continued safety concerns, UC Berkeley enforced three COVID-19 related housing protocols as several thousand students moved in last week.

UC Berkeley rising sophomore Derek Tan endured the first semester of his freshman year in quarantine as the quintessential young adult: by spending his days in the confines of his room at home, either watching lectures or playing video games.

To be honest, though, as a freshman who has yet to step foot on campus, I don’t really know anything about UC Berkeley's residence halls.

Students living in residence halls on campus are being consolidated into fewer buildings to better utilize resources in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.  

In an effort to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, UC Berkeley is looking to consolidate students within campus housing while promoting social distancing and community.

If you’ve lived in the dorms — specifically in Units 1, 2 or 3 — you’ve probably experienced your elevator breaking down at some point.
