WELCOME TO YOUR HOME!
We are excited to have you live with us for the three weeks of Summer Language Institute 2019. We hope that your
time here will be one of great discoveries and lots of fun! Our Residence Halls provide a
place for students to live and learn together. It is a home away from home - a community
where each person is valued, respect is demonstrated, and safety is a priority.
In order for this to happen, everyone who lives here must help to create an atmosphere
where we can live, study, and play together. Please take this opportunity seriously—it is a
privilege to live in the dorm. Do your part to make your University residence hall a fun
and safe place for everyone!

Familiarize yourself with the information in this Guide and if you have any questions email info@lcc.lt. Again, welcome
and have a great SLI experience!

LIVING IN LITHUANIA
Lithuania is located in the Northern Europe, in the geographical heart of Europe. Lithuania is the largest and most
populous of the three Baltic States. The country possesses a rich cultural and historical heritage. At the moment,
Lithuania is not an expensive country to live in. The cost of living is very much dependent on individual habits and
lifestyle.

LIVING IN KLAIPEDA
Klaipeda is the third biggest city in Lithuania located on the coalescence of the Curonian Lagoon and The Baltic Sea.
The story of the city began in 1252 when the Memelburg castle was built by the Livonian Order in the area of Klaipeda.
 The population of Klaipeda is around 150,000 people.
 The area of Klaipeda city is approximately 98 km2 in total, 38% of which is covered by buildings, 1,4% by roads,
14% waters and the rest is committed for farming and greeneries.
 Klaipeda is a very charismatic city and a great place to live and study. Spectacular architecture, majesty of its
harbor and original leisure time activities, bohemian people, white mews and smell of sea will be absorbed for
a long time once you come to Klaipeda.
 Klaipeda is unique for its Old Town which is an outstanding example of German architecture.
 The average summer temperature ranges from 17 to 22°C.

making life decisions.

WHO IS HERE TO HELP?

Residence Life staff members are available to help you at all times during SLI.

 The Resident Assistants (RAs) are university students who work with the RDs to make the residence halls
exciting places to live! Resident Assistants (RAs) live on the floors with students and serve as a resource to
residents: organize events on floors, enforce community standards, and work to maintain University values, a
positive atmosphere and learning community.

 The Resident Directors (RDs) are professional staff members who live in the residence halls and who are
responsible for making them a place where students feel safe and welcome. They are concerned about the
wellbeing of students and enjoy spending time with them. They are also concerned with the atmosphere in
the residence hall and will hold students accountable if they break rules or damage the facilities.

 The Director of Community Life (DCL) oversees the Resident Directors and make sure SLI is a fun and safe
place for students!

on Friday and Saturday. The Residence Life Staff will come to your room after 23:00 (Sunday-Thursday) or 00:00

KITCHENS AND LOUNGES
Each floor has a kitchen and lounge area where residents can
prepare meals and relax. This is a community space and should
be respected and cared for. Kitchens should not be used as a
place for private or closed activities as it is a public place and all
residents have an equal right to use it. The residents are also
responsible for cleaning up after their guests.
Each room is assigned to a kitchen duty on a rotation. Residents
are responsible for cleaning up after themselves after each use.
This includes cleaning their own dishes, trash and common
surfaces, water spills, food leftovers, ovens, microwaves after
use.

solution to remove grease and marks. Use a non-abrasive sponge and cleanser to remove residue from the
drip pans, underneath, and on top of the rings around the coils on the stovetop. Scrubbing sponges will
damage the finish

them from the oven and carefully follow directions on the container.

Take the trash outside to the rubbish containers.
Floors The residents are responsible for dusting and mopping the floor on a daily basis, including the areas around
the trash bins. The carpets need to be vacuumed after every kitchen duty.

kitchen, they are put aside in a box to be thrown away by the on-duty residents.

YOUR ROOMMATES
LIVING TOGETHER
Making the most of living in your new residence hall community starts with getting settled in and getting to know
your roommates. Begin by discussing with your roommate your ideas, feelings, backgrounds, and opinions on sharing
responsibilities in the room. Be clear about what you want and work on compromising. Establishing healthy
roommate relationships is the first step in becoming part of the larger on-campus community. Make sure to reflect
your expectations about living together while signing your roommate agreement, which can serve as a reminder but
also keep accountability on respecting each other’s privacy and freedoms.

HOME SICKNESS
If you feel lonely and homesick, there are ways that help you deal with this feeling:
 Call your parents! Staying in touch can help.
 Do something fun, like playing with friends.
 Go to talk to your RA; this conversation will help you feel better.
 Look at the bright side, such as activities and friends in the new setting.
 Think that the time away is short.

CULTURE SHOCK
If you come from outside of Lithuania, you may experience culture shock. It's a confusing and nervous feeling a person
may have after leaving a familiar culture to live in a new and different culture. What can you do to overcome that
feeling?
 Talk to your RA about it; they can help you understand the local culture.
 Find some friends from your own country
 Try to learn more about the new culture; you might find that you have more similarities than at first was noted

SAFETY AND SECURITY

Your safety is our number one concern. Our department strives to work with our community in recognizing and
resolving crime and community issues.
Although Klaipeda is a safe place, common sense safety measures are advised:
 Always be aware of your surroundings, especially at night. If possible, avoid walking alone late at night. Walk
with friends and people you know.
 When walking, travel in well-lit and populated areas.
 Take a taxi when returning late from the city at night.
 Wear sneakers or shoes that allow for added mobility.
 Be watchful and aware. Keep your head up. Make quick eye contact with those around you and be observant
of passing vehicles. Don’t become distracted by talking on a cell phone or listening to an iPod/similar device.
 It is not a bad idea to keep a whistle within reach. If threatened, use the whistle to signal residents for help.
 Carry a cell phone and call ahead to your destination to alert them that you’re on the way. Make sure you’re
expected at a certain time, so in the event you fail to show up, those expecting you will know enough to begin
looking for you.
 Walk with confidence. Don’t let anyone violate your space.
 Trust your instincts. Anyone at any time can be a victim of a crime, so never assume, “IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN
TO ME.”
 If an unarmed attacker confronts you, believe in your ability to defend, distract, or even incapacitate the
attacker enough to escape.
 If you think that someone is following you, switch direction or cross the street. Walk towards an open store,
restaurant or residence
 Carry an emergency card on you (take it from DeFehr reception)
 Call 112 in an emergency
In the halls:
 Always lock your room even if you are in the residence hall.
 For your safety and that of other residents, do not prop open entrance doors.
 Note the nearest fire exit.
 Never let someone you do not know into a building.
 Know your neighbors, watch out for one another, and notify an RA if you see any suspicious people.

STORES & ATM LOCATIONS

won’t be able to get in any other store.
 MAXIMA is a Lithuanian store and claims to be the cheapest. You can really find good deals there every week.

veggies.

OTHER SHOPPING
The largest shopping mall, Akropolis (Taikos pr. 61) is located right in the center of the city and the Nr 14 bus will take
you there. You won’t miss the bus stop because a huge sign is visible from afar www.akropolis.lt. You can buy
everything from food to pots and pans. If you are looking to buy bedding and towels, you may visit JYSK (opposite to

13
EMERGENCIES
For medical emergencies, fires, and other emergency situations, students should call RD-on-Duty
phone +3706 4345 644. For immediate emergency, call 112.

FIRE SAFETY
 Evacuation plans are placed on each floor of all LCC buildings. Everyone must evacuate their
room/office and building immediately during the sounding of a fire alarm or upon the direction
of a University staff member.
 Leave all belongings behind. Inhibiting the process of evacuation will result in disciplinary action. Exit quickly and
orderly through the nearest stairway exit. Never open a door that feels hot to the touch.
 There are glass key boxes by every back door on the first floor of each building. In case of a fire, break the glass,
take the key out and open the back door.
 Attempting to re-enter a building area without permission from University officials is prohibited. Disciplinary action
will be taken for failing to comply with the evacuation policy.
 During the fire emergency, all residents must leave the Residence Halls and gather in Michealsen Centras. In
Michealsen Centras all residents must show up near their floor RAs and to sign up that they are present.

POWER OUTAGES
Things to remember during a power outage:
 Turn off all light switches. The voltage may fluctuate and damage any lights that are on.
 Set all equipment and appliance switches to the OFF position. This is to protect against kicking out the circuit
breakers, blowing fuses, or damaging equipment when the full surge or current hits as the power comes back
on.
 Increase ventilation by opening windows. If the failure lasts more than a few minutes, it will be necessary to
