File permissions for web hosting in shared environment?

Hi I want to host my files in my university storage space. Each of us is given a space under /home/userid/html/

The current numberic value for the permissions is 755. The problem is that other users can go to my /home/userid/html page and look at my source code. I tried disabling the read option for group and public, but then I get access denied message when I go to my website.
