Appeal for organized behaviour at Medical Museum‏

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

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
