Salutations

It seems I'm the latest addition to the ever-growing collection of new arrivals to this fine institution. There seems to be quite an influx of people lately, judging by the state of the journals, which leads to an interesting question. Namely, why now? Obviously with the school term there is a certain amount of sense to relocating now as opposed to some other point during the semester, but not all the introductions have come from students. It certainly bears further investigation, given the potential impact on resource and space allocation. Does anybody have any other hypotheses?

That is to say, hi, I'm Hank. I'll be staying here for a time while I'm studying and I look forward to meeting you all.

Welcome to the mansion Hank. I'm Scott Summers, I'm the oldest Alumni of the mansion and I help to keep things running around here at the moment.

I don't think you have to worry about resource or space allocation in the foreseeable future, we still only the rooms we need to, the Mansion has plenty of space still available for new people to move into. Resource wise, you'll be o unless something good was cooked for dinner, then I wouldn't recommend dawdling too long.

Of course, I wasn't implying that there was any imminent shortage of space or food - I wouldn't want to start a panic. Only that, as with all habitats, there is an implicit carrying capacity and that if annual trends in habitant influx could be tracked it might make it easier to plan accordingly.

...but I'm not trying to tell you how to do your job. I'm sure you're very good at it.

Thank you for your welcome, Mr Summers.

If there's one thing I've learned it's that we can all always stand to do is learn a better way of doing things. I hadn't actually thought about looking at the past year to predict future expansion needs. I've been running a much more reactive strategy. Once you've got settled in why don't you stop by my office for a chat.

Welcome to the Mansion Mr McCoy, I can tell you're gonna be an interesting addition to our little community.
