Very Important: Security Issues‏

0 comments
Dear All,

Recently we have had issues with outsiders coming into IMU and using student facilities. For the security of the student body outsiders are not allowed to do so. Some have even troubled our students.

Security guards often complain that they are unable to tell the difference between outsiders and students because lots of students come into IMU out of dress code and without their IMU Student IDs. There is also the issue of students being unnecessarily rude and crass with the guards when they are informed that they are not in dress code.

Students must realize that it is for their own safety and well-being that they are to follow the dress code. On a side-note, it is also the expected attire of health professionals.

Therefore it is imperative that all students:

Comply to the Dress Code from 6 AM to 6 PM (even if you are on study break).
Wear their IDs visibly at all times, even after 6 PM.
If you see any suspicious people around at anytime please do email us at imusrc@gmail.com or call us at our extension line 6601.

This is something IMU takes very seriously, and remember - please be vigilant!

Warmest regards,
Zia Shah
