<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 10.0px 0.0px; font: 11.0px 'Lucida Grande'"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px">Dear Tang Hall Residents,</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 10.0px 0.0px; font: 11.0px 'Lucida Grande'"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px">We hope you’re having a productive summer! As you start turning your mind to the fall semester, we want to let you know about some building security
enhancements that are being implemented soon. But first, a little background.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 10.0px 0.0px; font: 11.0px 'Lucida Grande'"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px">In 2012 the Division of Student Life brought together a number of undergraduate and graduate students, housemasters, MIT Police, the Security and Emergency
Management Office (SEMO), and DSL staff to review security policies, procedures, and mechanisms in undergraduate and graduate residences. In the process they developed a list of important short- and long-term recommendations intended to balance safety, openness,
and convenience.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 10.0px 0.0px; font: 11.0px 'Lucida Grande'"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px">Our building is one of two graduate residences receiving these enhancements and you will see some changes when you get back, most notably a few procedural
changes for everyone who lives in the building, including:</span></p>
<ul>
<li style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 10.0px 0.0px; font: 11.0px 'Lucida Grande'"><span style="font: 11.0px Symbol; letter-spacing: 0.0px"></span><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px">You will need to get in the habit of carrying your ID with you at all times.</span>
</li><li style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 10.0px 0.0px; font: 11.0px 'Lucida Grande'"><span style="font: 11.0px Symbol; letter-spacing: 0.0px"></span><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px">Each time you come through the front door, please tap your ID onto a card reader so
we know you’re in the building.</span> </li><li style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 10.0px 0.0px; font: 11.0px 'Lucida Grande'"><span style="font: 11.0px Symbol; letter-spacing: 0.0px"></span><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px">Most other doors will be converted to exit-only doors, though some may be accessible
by residents after checking after identifying yourself to security.</span> </li></ul>
