4. Respect Your Student Cafe Recently the student cafe has become more and more untidy as the volume of students making use of the facility has increased. Confetti would like to remind you of your duties to ‘ be professional ’ and for you to make sure that you tidy away your litter before you leave the cafe, using the bins provided. Stray food, drinks wrappers and other mess make the room look and smell unclean; please respect your fellow students by clearing up your own litter before moving on to your next class.
