The whole area around school is covered by a wireless network - I wish I'd known that, since I didn't have appropriate hardware.

Personal comments
Die Zimmer sind wohnlich mit eigenem Bad und WC. Die Küche teilt man sich mit 10-12 anderen Studenten, jedoch ist die Küche gut eingerichtet mit all dem was man zum Kochen braucht. Weiters sind zwei Herde vorhanden, sodass es kaum zu Engpässen kommt. Das Wohnen in Lappis hat auch seine Vorteile, so kommt man beispielsweise leichter in Kontakt mit Studenten anderer Studienrichtungen und ist direkt im Grünen. Allen, die sich für ein Zimmer in Saltis interessieren, kann ich nur raten, sich möglichst früh um einen Platz zu bewerben, da diese sehr beliebt sind.
