I've tried to think of ways I could work around this problem. The thing is I don't think there are any lockers available, but if there was I know the ones in the gym are constantly being broken into (even during the day). So I don't feel very safe with this option.
At my undergrad school, we had carrels available to grad students that had cages with locks. I wish we had that here, but we just have regular carrels. I have one that I do leave books on and use from time to time, but it's tiny and can't hold all my books. Also, the last time I went to use it and check on it, my books had been taken off of it and moved to another carrel. I had to hunt them down. It really freaked me out and made me angry.
Also, I generally work from anywhere between 9 am to 9,10,11 and on at night. I really do need to be able to work from home. And I can pretty much deal with the noise during the day, so I can suck it up for the most part and put some ear plugs in if necessary.
