Dress code in the library

Dear all,

As there have been many incidents of theft and outsiders coming into IMU to use our facilities, the SRC and SSD would like for the library to ensure that the students who use the library abide by the dress code and wear their IMU ID tags at all times.

Therefore, starting from the 16th of November (Monday), the librarians will turn away all students who do not comply to the IMU dress code including neck-ties and the IMU ID tag. Students are requested to take note of this matter and to please abide by the new rule for the everyone's safety.

Also, as a few students have inquired, on the 31st of October the library opened 20 minutes later than usual as the staff on-duty could not start her car (incidently, both staff members are housemates and come to work together). The head librarian would like to apologize for the inconvenience caused.

Regards,
Nirmal

Dear May Kuan,

We suspect that some students are using the PBL rooms for their private activities and they eat and drink in them thus creating a mess. Can Student Services please remind the students that our regulations do not permit food or drink to be consumed in the PBL rooms and that any student caught doing so will be subject to disciplinary action.

ATTENTION: Appeal for organized behaviour at Medical Museum

Dear batch mates, I believe this is very relevant to our batch considering that Sem 5 involves us spending a lot of time in the MMS!!

Dear all,

Please take note of this matter and please take it seriously. This is for everyone's knowledge, even if you don't use the medical museum. Please spread the word to your batchmates at lectures and put it up on your respective batch blogs :


------------------------------ --

IMU has been purchasing expensive models for many years in significant numbers so that the students can have a good learning experience. The students should also reciprocate by helping in up-keep of these models.

Recently it has been found that the students are taking away model parts or are not keeping the models properly after the study. I found some students telling that re-assembing the parts of a model, after they have finished the study, is the job of museum staff. I am sorry to say that it does not reflect a professional behaviour. If a student has dismantled a model to study, it is his or her obligation to re-assemble the parts. In case he or she is not able to do that , help of museum staff should be taken.

As Medical Science students are mostly using the models intensively for study, the SRC representatives of Medical Sciences are requested to look into the matter and appeal to the students for more organized and professional behaviour in Medical Museum.

In case, the problem is continued, as museum coordinator I would have no other option but to keep few models in cupboards under lock & key and allow the students to use few models only for study.

Best wishes

With sincere hope for Co-operation

AP Dr Nilesh Kumar

Museum Coordinator

International Medical University

Dear SRC

I really urge students to please be more responsible when handling the models. I can still tolerate it when some students don't put models back and leave them scattered around, making it likely that parts can go missing or broken (as this has happened before) and make it difficult for others to use but I find it really irresponsible when they unscrew the models, eg the skeleton and never bother where they put the screw and just leave the detached part on the table and the screw is nowhere to be found.

I have high expectations especially for medical students and these students use the museum more than the others so it's really disappointing to observe such irresponsible behaviour.

For students who have been good and responsible ..I thank you all so much because it's cool to be nice.

Regards,
Maria
Medical Museum Staff

1. Reminder - Student Satisfaction Survey 2009‏

Dear all,

Recently, IMU had conducted a Student Satisfaction Survey (SSS) to all IMU students. This exercise is very important as it identifies the concerns raised by the students and the actions that each department has to take in order for them to improve their services.

The survey was carried out on-line in accordance to batches in the E-Lab. However, the response rate from the students is really low.

Thus, we would appreciate if you could inform your batch mates who have not done the survey to do the survey at http://its.imu.edu.my/imusurvey/

Thank you and your cooperation in this matter is greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Chiew Yeong

2. IMU RESEARCH

I'm Ghi Waie, C1/09 of Clinical School Seremban. I know that exam is nearing for you and i am very sorry to trouble you now. I need some help from you regarding my research project.

3. IMU Acoustic Night

Hey there guys.

I'm Ben from the Music and Performance Club and I'm in charge of publicizing our upcoming event "Acoustic Night" which will be held on the 27th of October in the dance studio from 7.00pm onwards. Having said that I would like to request for the help of the batchreps to make announcements regarding this event anytime within the coming week (19th Oct) and more importantly on the day before the event (26th) itself.

The event is free-of-charge and is not limited to the M&P club members and so is open to all faculties in IMU. Activities include open-mike sessions for acoustic jammings and also live, unplugged performances from a few well-known performers in IMU. Do mention as well that some light refreshments will be provided.

I've included with this email a large-sized e-poster/wallpaper and a slightly downsized e-flier for your perusal should you decide to put it up on your batchblogs (which we strongly encourage/urge/beseech/beg you to). It also makes a good desktop wallpaper for your computers. haha.

Well at any rate thanks a (million) bunch for your help and do drop me an email if there's anything else that I've not clarified thru this email thread. More importantly, join us for the event!

Ben

ACOUSTIC NIGHT Publicity boy

p.s. if your batch happens to be on a study/semester break and will continue to do so until after the 27th, just put this announcement on the batchblog, pretend this email was never sent to you and come anyway for the event :D

LOTS OF ANNOUNCEMENTS

1. Disaster Fund

Dear All,

I'm sure that you are already aware of the recent disasters in Manila and Padang. Mercy Malaysia has sent a team to each location for initial assessment, and they anticipate that there is a great need for both locations to be assisted, especially with more bad weather forecasted.

In view of the recent disasters, we would be grateful if you could highlight the urgency of funds to be raised for their response to Manila and Padang.

At the moment, all donations are still channeled to MERCY Malaysia, or MERCY Humanitarian Fund. I have attached a donation form for those who are interested in making a donation.

Their donor management officer, Ms.Suhaila, will be able to assist you further, and she is contactable at suhaila@mercy.org.my or603-2273 3999.

The SRC would like help from batchreps to collect funds as a batch by passing around a box or alternatively students can come directly to SRC to donate. All funds collected by SRC will be given under one donation form from the students of IMU.

Warmest regards,
Zia Shah
President SRC BJ 09/10

2. INVITATION TO HIV/AIDS AWARENESS SESSION 2009 - PUBLIC

Good Evening,


Leo Club of KL Perennial will be running the *HIV/AIDS Peer**‐**to**‐**Peer
Educators* program. We are working together with *Malaysian Aids Council*,
*Standard Chartered Bank *and* AIESEC *to deliver the HIV/AIDS education
talk. This *HIV: The Series* consists of the following five (05) modules
on HIV/AIDS.



Module 1 : What is HIV? What is AIDS?

Module 2 : Transmission and Prevention

Module 3 : The World and Us

Module 4 : Testing, Treatment, Positive Living and
Support

Module 5 : Sharing Session





As we all understand that HIV/AIDS does not discriminate on the basis of
race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, national, ethnic or social
origin. Middle age and youths are being the two (2) highest groups living
with HIV/AIDS, they need to be empowered to take control of their life and
protect themselves from being vulnerable.



We believe that empowerment comes from knowledge and this is precisely why
we are undertaking this challenge to be youth champions to create a
community of a well‐informed, energetic, and dynamic people. In such, our
main objectives for the program will work towards



1. Increasing the awareness about HIV/AIDS amongst public.

2. Reducing stigma of HIV/AIDS.

3. Providing a platform for public of diversified backgrounds to interact
and share common opinion.

In addition, the aspiration gives us another great pleasure to cordially
invite you and your friends to join us in the program.* **Kindly refer

3. MICROWAVE AND FIRST AID KIT FOR STUDENTS

Dear All,

I am pleased to inform you that the First Aid Kit in the Student Lounge has been filled up for a while already by the SRC.

What the inside of the First Aid Box looks like when it's filled up.

However, if we find that the items inside the box are once again stolen we will unfortunately have to stop placing anything inside the box and it shall remain forever empty.

So please be considerate of other and use the box to treat real injuries and emergencies.

Also we are happy to announce that we have bought a microwave for the students to use to reheat their food.


Please be considerate

• and treat the microwave gently. Do not bang the door or punch the open button.
• to our muslim friends and do not reheat non-halal food in the microwave.
• and do not heat inappropriate items in the microwave, it is only meant for heating up food.

Also, this is a reminder to all students that eating inside the student lounge is prohibited.

If you want to eat, please eat in the eating area inside the SRC office or on the tables of the first, second and fourth floor if it's outside food. If it's food from the canteen please eat it in the canteen, not the student lounge.

This is to prevent any rat infestation and unsightly stains (which have been increasing recently) in the student lounge.

Warmest regards,
Zia Shah

4. CANTEEN SATISFACTION SURVEY

Dear all,

Here is a survey that we would like the students to fill in so we can work on improving the canteen for students.

There are only 11 questions because we don't want to waste students time on it or have them quit doing it halfway. At the same time we want to get as much feedback as possible.

Here is the link to the survey: Please click here

This survey will take less than 5 minutes. All answers will be anonymous.

If there is not enough response to these surveys we will send out the survey in paper form. We really need the feedback from the students to make the canteen more student-friendly. The more statistics we have the easier it is to show the caterers what the students want.

Warmest regards,
Zia Shah
