THE TOILETS
STINK!
A treatise on sanitation
Deniz Akıncı
RC is facing a major problem. Toilets Stink! In a survey filled by RC students and staff it once more
became clear that not everyone is happy about the facilities.
The results of the survey show that exactly 50% of RC students think the school toilets are dirty and
they stink. Surprisingly, only 26% of the staff think the toilets are dirty which shows that students are not
happy with their toilets which gets cleaned as much as the staff toilets. Results are clear, its students fault
too!
Although how people leave the toilets matter, it is not the only problem according to Mr.Carter. He
points out that the problem can be because of the facility pipe system saying “It is about the facility too, the
men’s faculty toilet in the woods used to smell horrible” says Carter “ but they managed to fix it in
summer.” Mr.Carter is not the only one who had problems with toilets in the past, Miss.Pop is sicken with
the toilets of the campus too. She replies “Yes” to both questions, “Do you think the toilets smell, are they
dirty ?” and “Have you had any trouble finding any material in the toilet ?”.
What both teachers and students complain about is finding materials in the toilets. Both sides gave
“Yes” as an answer to “Have you ever had finding a material you need in the toilet ?”. In average 60% of
the entire school is not satisfied about the supply services in the toilets.
In the survey more than half of candidates answered the question “What can be done about this in
your opinion ?”. One of the most qualified and longest answers is “The stink comes from it being a very
old building , There needs to be a pipe for the sewer gas to leave. This can be done!! the cleaners do a good
job but sometimes students don’t clean up after themselves.”
