University Life Mailbox/Job Opportunity Board
I've recently renovated De Anda Hall and I went to place it in a new save. When I do that, the mailbox/job opportunity board disappears. I looked in buydebug and they don't appear to be there - unless...

Sorry it took me so long to get to you @TreyNutz.
Do I need to be doing this is Edit Town Mode without a family there? Because when I go to place down the dorm; first in order to place it, I made it a community lot visitors allowed and then when I placed it down, it saved as a dorm on it own. Then I switched to residential and now I can't switch it back to dorm.

Dorms, sororities, and fraternities are community lots. If you made the lot residential and then moved sims to that lot you can't change the lot assignment to a community lot. (You can do that in CAW though, and presumably whatever tools EA used to create EPs.) I should have specified above that I was using an unoccupied lot. If you are going to replace the existing dorms (sorority and fraternity) in Sims University you will have to relocate the sims living there.
edit: NRaas MasterController has an "Add Sim" lot command which will add any sim you choose to the household on a lot (occupied or not). There's a setting in MC which allows use of Add Sim on community lots. I've never used it myself. But it seems to me that once you send a sim to university (and thus are in Live mode) you might be able to use Add Sim to place the original dorm residents (if the game doesn't fill the dorm by itself).
I'm not sure what the game would do with an empty dorm lot, to be honest. I added a new residential lot to a university world once and that was immediately filled with uni residents when my sim traveled there. I'm not sure what would happen to a dorm/sorority/fraternity though, since those are technically community lots.
