Quick Announcements‏

Dear all,

Here are a few quick announcements!

New printers have arrived! You can collect your personal pin number for the printer from MPH 6 or you can ask the IT Department where to collect it from. These printers are outsourced (to outsource means to obtain goods or services from an outside supplier; to contract work out.) and because it is a MYR 2 million ringgit project meant for both BJ and Seremban it had taken a while to get everything settled. I will be emailing soon about what students can get from the printers and the official pricing of printing.

There are now two more PCs in the Student Lounge for students to use. Just a reminder: please switch off the PC once you are done and no one else is using it. Please make sure that even the switches are off because otherwise they are left on overnight and it is a waste of electricity.

We are working on fixing the gym equipment with the assistance of the Gym Club and SSD. We hope students can be slightly patient with us on this as we need to evaluate which equipment is not working and then get it fixed.

The Welfare meeting is on the 15th of December (next Tuesday). If you have any concerns about facilities or student welfare you would like to voice out feel free to let us know. You can contact me or Nirmal or email imusrc@gmail.com. Here are the issues we are bringing up:
Soundproofing the music room
Hill-top carpark
Lockers to place valuables in for MDLs
Extending student lounge hours
Printers
More places to eat around IMU
Problems with teaching venues

Canteen Committee‏

Dear all,

As some students have requested to know more on what SRC are doing for the students we will be emailing you the summary of the meetings we attend. Alternatively, all these and more (for example, the previous minutes) can be found at http://imusrc.blogspot.com as well.


Meeting discussing results from Canteen Satisfaction Survey

De Brio 3rd floor got the best reviews from canteen satisfaction survey. We will investigate the claims that the auntie is rude and will ask for more variety in the food selection.

De Brio LG We will request for more variety in the food selection.

Sri Emas The pricing of the food is fixed at RM4.00 except for additional request for Chicken Rice. They might bring in Chinese vegetarian food. They too will be asked for more variety in the food selection.

Jumbo We will work with Jumbo to come up with solutions to fix the long queue problem. Pricing is by the scoop so it should no longer be inconsistent. However, we will propose that Jumbo create two different sections, to indicate different price ranges ie. one section for the individual price per item/portion while the other would cover the fixed pricing. We will ask Jumbo to clarify this to students by putting up a paper sign indicating which is which. We will ask them to include more vegetable dishes and ensure all workers serving food wear gloves.

The suggestions for items to be added for tea time will be given to all vendors.

Regarding the stench in the air-conditioned area the Facilities and Management department is working on solutions for this problem.

Also, a reminder to all students that if you buy the outside food please do not use the utensils of the canteen operators, it is an unfair cost to them. Also to maximize the space of the canteen students are requested to avoid placing their bags on the chairs so that other students can use the chairs.
