I am an undergraduate at Emmanuel. As far as I know, bedders have never been known to make anyone's beds - or not for a long time, at least

You've just got the wrong bedders! When I was at Emma (1993-2000, although I lived out for the second three years) I usually got my bed made... maybe you've done something to annoy your bedder smiley - winkeye

They don't make your bed here in Christs

Starting this academic year (2001-2002), the role of the bedders at Emmanuel has been changed, in an effort to reduce rents. (Although I don't really see the logic in that, and I'm pretty certain the rents haven't decreased.)

Previously, your bedder was supposed to come in and empty your bin every day, and would change your bedding for you and clean your room once a week.

From this year, they only empty your bin twice a week, and they're not supposed to make anyone's beds. Ever.

In churchill they emptied the bins and if your floor was clear of detritus they hoovered. So my room very rarely got hoovered...

Oh, and they dropped clean sheets outside your door and made friendly conversation. Better than a kick in the head, anyway smiley - smiley

I might be able to help... the bedders won't make your bed if you are still in it.
