<p>Greetings Tang:<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Recently we have had some warm days which have impacted the temperatures here in Tang. I'm resending the message below from Housing, with instructions on how to report any discomfort related to temperature so that facilities can track and make adjustments
to the rooms in most need of attention.<br>

<p>Best,<br>
