<p>is there room above a door or something or anywhere to install one of these? do they let you?
i need like a 12 inch by 22 inch space for a rock climbing hangboard, if not, how about settling for a chin up bar?</p>

<p>awwwwwwwwwwwwwww</p>

<p>They won’t let you put those kinds of things up because they have to be nailed into a wall/doorway. But…there’s always the gym.</p>

<p>reminds me of a funny story…someone told me a guy who lived on our floor last year used the water main pipe (protruding from the dorm ceiling) to do chin ups.</p>

<p>He ended up flooding his room, damaging his possessions, and disabling his roomate’s computer (which had a term paper, among others important things, in it)</p>

5

<p>hahaha….funny! somehow I feel especially bad for the lost term paper…all that time/effort….;)</p>

6

<p>I would punch that guy in the face if he ruined my comp. & destroyed my term paper.</p>

<p>btw I don;t have any pipes in my room, but I know a kid in Dickson who has a pipe which bisects his room.</p>

<p>no wai
what if i secretly install it</p>

8

<p>They will find out during inspections (over breaks and such) and fine you up the wazoooo.</p>

<p>oi oi oi oi</p>

10

<p>take the bar home with you and conceal the holes</p>

11

<p>Wait, Cornell FINES you for violations?</p>

12

<p>If you make holes in the wall, they’ll charge you for the holes. Any damage they will charge you.</p>

13

<p>how much for a hole?
do they fine and then fix the walls right away or can they wait til the end of the year to fine you? meaning can i get away with just paying for the holes basically? or do i need to take them off asap</p>

14

<p>cover it with tape :)</p>

15

<p>Well, you have to take off all tape. And if the tape damages the paint, they fine you too.</p>

<p>I’m not sure how much the fines are in proportion to the damage but I think it’s a lot… I’m sure you can get it fixed right away and get fined right away. But they don’t check until the end of th year.</p>

16

<p>are you kidding!
now im thinking small paper balls and white out</p>

17

<p>LOL Hansen.</p>
