From Lechateau

This is a wiki dedicated to Le Chateau Residence Club. Le Chateau was a USCA run coop until 2005 when it was reconfigured to be more mature graduate housing. It's 3 houses reside on the corner of Hillegass and Parker in Berkeley's Southside neighborhood.

The houses are North House, Main House and South House. There is also a Carriage House, a pool, a bike shed and a garden.

The capacity of Chateau is 81. You did not have to be a UC student to live at Chateau, but you did have to be a student. This was reasonable easy to fake at the local community colleges.

People that didn't pay or have a room, but lived their nonetheless were known as "fish". This term arose because there was an official "no pets" policy, but aquariums were allowed. So when discussing unofficial residents during house meetings, whose minutes were public, they were referred to as fish. Those who I remember most vividly are: Aaron, Smiley and Bottleneck.

Chateau was ruled by house council. There was a president and a vice president for council, but the actual day to day runnings were done by the House manager.

I don't know all of the details but I am hope that this page can bring together as many Chateauvians as possible for reconnection and memory sharing.
