It Begins With You 2011

2011-04-30T02:37:00.002+08:00

Hi everybody, I'm Alicia from CrusAIDSers. As a club, we are dedicated to raising awareness about HIV and AIDS as well as to reducing the stigma that stems from a lack of understanding of the disease.
In partnership with other universities and organizations dedicated to the same cause, we will be organizing an event called 'It Begins With You'.

It will be one of the biggest AIDS awareness campaign of the year so we request your help as volunteers. The volunteers will be helping to man the booth, get signatures on sandwich boards and participate in the flash mob! Each of the volunteers will receive a t-shirt as thanks for participating, and there will be fun and games and food and performances that everyone can enjoy. Tentatively we might have one practice for the flash mob but we will soon post a video of the dance up so you can learn it yourself in the comfort of your own home!

The details are as follows:

Date: Saturday, May 7th 2011
Time: Meet in front of IMU at 8:30am, estimated to end at 3pm
Venue: Times Square

Transport and lunch will be provided.

If you would like to join this cause, please email me at aicila123@hotmail.com or contact me at 010-248-1929 with your:

Name
Student ID
Phone number
Email

Thank you! Hope to see you there :D

On top of having an impressive C.V and various other benefits, the student ambassador will receive FULLY PAID training sessions as part of the programme such as leadership camps, personal development, team-building activities and the list goes on.

I certainly hope that I have piqued your interest!

Updates on Elections, Food, Jobs

2010-10-27T17:40:00.003+08:00

- SRC Elections! Most of our committee will be wrapped up in exams by the end of the year, and when we're done, it will already by time to usher in the new SRC 11/12. YOU can be part of that change. A lot of things are well within the realm of possibility, and I urge every eligible candidate (if you are a semester 2 or 3 student NEXT semester) to consider. All positions are open.

The flow -

Elections open already - Collect your forms at the SRC office
Mar 1, 2011 - Deadline for submission
March 2011 - April 2011 - Tasks and Apprenticeship
April 2011 - Elections and Voting
May 2011 - Stepping up Ceremony

- Food. Shirley's our student lounge caterer is pulling out due to "low sales and food wastage".
So we won't have healthy food for a while, but we'll be bringing in another caterer to help supplement the healthy food supply. We'll keep you updated.

As for Darabif, I've found out that their truck has broken down and needs servicing. They'll be back with us.

I strongly urge all students to support the new caterer that comes in. Otherwise we will have a healthy food shortage problem again. Please spread the word.

- Jobs! Interested in working part-time for a bit of extra cash? IMU has several attractive part-time staff (PTS) options for you!

ITS (POSITIONS AVAILABLE!)
The IT department of IMU is willing to employ students, especially those who are on semester break, as they have voiced to me. They require responsible students. It's a fairly stress-free job, where you'll be trained to help assist in improving the IT services in IMU (don't worry, you won't be thrown into the sharks) and stand-by for any problems that the students face with IT services, e.g., after hours from 6:30pm-9:30pm. You'll be reporting to En. Awang and En. Ibrahim.
NEW! IMU HEALTHCARE (POSITIONS AVAILABLE!)
After negotiating with Mr. Kevin and Sr. Anne from the IMU Healthcare, we are pleased to announce students are now allowed to work part-time at the IMU Healthcare center as either clinic assistants or front desk clerks. An excerpt of what part-time students might be expected to do:
The part-time staff is required to assist the clinicians and the necessary treatment as required and occasionally they will double up as receptionist cum cashier.They will cover the evening sessions and Saturdays, and when necessary when the staff goes on leave.
It is a great opportunity indeed, as we are in training to become healthcare professionals!
NEW! MARKETING & COMMUNICATIONS DEPARTMENT (LIMITED POSITIONS AVAILABLE!)
An excerpt from what Ms. Aishah from SSD has emailed regarding this position:
We are looking for part timer to work in Marketing & Communications Dept. Preferably if you can start on 1 Nov or asap.
She has not specified the details, but for more information, please contact her at 03 2731 7422.

That's all folks! Keep checking on the blog or IMU SRC Blog for more updates!

Big Changes Coming!

2010-10-06T23:01:00.002+08:00

Dear ND109,

Some stuff to get you excited about! Updates retrieved from IMU SRC blog.

---

Hey guys,

We've got a couple of big changes coming up for you:

- We'll be implementing a new study area, think of it as "Quiet study area 2", near the IMU entrance with extended opening hours for you to study. The room is fully air conditioned with a big space and a nice view for when you get bored or sleepy. PLEASE NOTE: This room is scheduled to be open only until March 2011, until such time that management decides to review.

- We'll be opening up a new cafeteria, created by students, for students. This will be in the IMU drive tentatively. Dinner can be ordered prepacked or delivery from a restaurant at carrefour. Tentatively Assam Fish Restaurant.

- Prepacked Dinner (HEALTHY) is already available from 4pm to 10pm at the cafeteria (where we go to eat during lunch) This area is now open at night.

- The level 1 cafeteria (Pandan Serai) now open at night, can also be used for studying puposes.

- Wii hours can now be extended upon request. (Provided a councillor is around)

We'll have more updates for you as we continue to work. Meanwhile, suggest names for us for these places. It's YOUR voice. We need to name the new study area and the new cafeteria area.

All the best,

Amar

Cafe Meeting
Cafe Meeting will be held on 19 April 2010. So any complaints regarding the cafe caterers (especially the new caterer-Impian Rasa) can be brought up to either the treasurer (Ickes) or the president (Zia) so that we can discuss with the cafe committee in the meeting!

Vending Machines
It was still pending as IMU is still finding the best Vending Machine Company for the students. So be anticipated and we will try to bring them in as soon as possible!

Astro in Student Lounge
Regarding the Astro in student lounge, we are so regretted that it went inactive for few weeks as we are in the process of changing it from family package to commercial package. Regards to that, we are no longer able to afford all the channels as they are too expensive. We have increased our budget from around RM300-400 per month to RM750 per month, hopefully the channels we have chosen will benefit the students.

The channels available now are:

1) Sports Package – RM550
Most students hanging out at student lounge are usually very active in sports; in contrast, nerdy students would be reading books at home.
Thus, sports channel is viewed rather often.

2) Star World – RM60
A lot of series are shown here (e.g. heroes, ugly betty, American Idol) and I believe most students will like to watch it.

3) AXN –RM40
I have noticed students like to watch reality series for example, Biggest Loser in Asia, Amazing Race and etc. We can have it here on AXN.

4) Discovery Channel –RM 40
Among all the learning channels, I found discovery channel to be most informative and interesting (history channel is boring, while Nat Geo focuses too much on wildlife).

5) MTV Channel-RM60
MTV channel is relaxing, and enlightened with musics. I found that a lot of students will prefer to watch this channel.

Total Fee per month for Astro: RM750

ECA Form
Just a kind reminder about ECA Form, please submit it to my possible new treasurer (Yeh Fong) before 28 May 2010. Don't submit at the last minute and please submit it fast. Delayed submission will result in cutting of funds and if possible clubs being abolished! I will be stepping down and pass most of my treasurer works to my new possible treasurer starting from 8 April 2010. So, clubs will be working & meeting with new treasurer soon. However, the official hand-over ceremony will be around in May. Be informed!

Any questions feel free to e-mail me at ickes_angelo88@hotmail.com!

Dear All,

The Centre for Medical Education (CtME), with the assistance of the Learning Resources Dept, will resume the continuing series of lunchtime educational sessions in support of advancing e-learning and use of digital resources at IMU.

In this learning session, we will explore some possibilities on how we could use Facebook as a tool to facilitate student learning. During the hands-on part, participants will be asked to create either a Facebook Group or Facebook Page, so having a Facebook account would be strongly recommended.

As its on first come basis, please register early to ensure a place in the learning session. If you miss a session, visit the E-Learning Innovation Centre in http://www.elearning.imu.edu.my to find the appropriate presentations and learning resources.

URGENT! Canteen

2010-04-01T10:51:00.001+08:00

Dear all,

I have messaged you once about this already, but I'm not sure if you've received it. I apologise if you have not, I have been having troubles with my phone.

Please inform all your batchmates that if they eat in the canteen they have to clean up after themselves. This is because to bring down the price of the food the operators have decided to hire fewer workers, hence we all have to make the habit of cleaning up after ourselves (which really isn't anything more than placing our plates on the trolley and cabinets in the canteen). Thanks everyone for their hard work and future compliance to this. :)

On a related note, De Brio is planning to hire two student part time workers for the cafe in the library. The pay is RM 5 per hour, and the timing is from 9 AM to 5 PM. Those interested, please contact me at 016-2578-520 with your name, ID number and contact details. Please keep in mind that they will be hired by the owner of De Brio, not IMU.

Open Day money is coming, don't worry. Just a few issues I need to sort out. However, I would like to greatly apologise for this delay.

Warmest regards,
Zia Shah

Congratulations :)

The university is glad to inform all students that many comments on our students’ good dressing were received from various visitors such as government officials from Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE), Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA) formerly known as LAN, visitors from other universities and deans from our partner universities. The visitors were very impressed and commented that IMU students dress very well and professional. This has really differentiated IMU students from other colleges/universities.

Please find the attached flyers containing the necessary detailed information.

IMU ECO FRIENDS' CLUB!!! =) & Paintball & P109 Malaysian Studies Drama

2010-02-01T13:52:00.000+08:00

Dear all,

Hope you are having a good time.. As you can see, IMU will have a brand new new club soon and it's related to one of the hottest topics of 2010 which is also the main concern for the world right now! The first step is to recruit at least 20 members inclusive of committee members for those who are interested. For now, you can email Isabell Tam Wen Feng (isabelltam@hotmail.com) or Cheong Yee Yi (cyeeyi@hotmail.com) your NAME, ID, BATCH & CONTACT NO to register or if you have queries. The AGM/WELCOMING PARTY is on 3rd February 2010 (wednesday) from 1 - 1.45pm in 3.06 (room opposite library pigeon holes) while lunch is provided to elect committee and disclose all the plans and acitivities. Students can just walk in on that day itself or after the club is formed to register, but we need to have at least 20 confirmed members before AGM starts. Every member (to be involved in commtitee or not) should come to the AGM. We hope by taking this small step, we can create a positive change for mother earth. Small steps go a long way. Thank you for your attention! Have a wonderful day!

P.s. : Please email or check out our event on facebook (http://www.facebook.com/event.php?invites&eid=184665204956) to confirm if you are coming best before Monday, 1st Feb 2010.

RE: Paintball?

Hey people,

Guess what? We’re having a paintball event!

Realizing that it has been rather quiet lately in IMU, and SRC has been keeping a pretty low profile, we’ve decided to come up with something totally out of the ordinary, hence paintball!

It’s a post-CNY event, the 26th February, which is fortunately a Friday (so you can recuperate during the weekend) . Details are as below:

Date: 26th February, Friday

Time: 7.45am - 5.00pm

Location: Canyon Paintball @ the Club, Bukit Utama.

Last date for RSVP is 19th of February 2010.

Excited yet?

Then you’d better sign up quick with SRC through facebook! Request an invitation at http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=260797944447&ref=ts, and you’d better move fast, because the strict cutoff number of people we’re taking is set at 50!

Mask on! Barrel socks off! Game ON!

Cheers,

Alicia,

IT Liaison 09/10.

A quick printer tutorial by the IT Liaison

2010-01-19T22:26:00.000+08:00

Dear all,

Here is a tutorial writter by our IT Liaison Alicia on how to use the printers. You can also find it at her blog page.

A How-To Guide to Printing on the new Ricohs.

Merely wanted to post up a written guide on how to print using the new printers as it's easy to get lost if you aren't too sure :(.

You would first need to get your pin, if you haven't efficiently already done so at HelpDesk on the third floor, left of the escalator. Miss Aarthi is the person in charge, and she is the only one who has the right to generate your six-digit pin, so if there's a congestion, please bear with us.

The second thing you need is paper and a computer within one of the ELLs.

After you've decided what to print, click Print (take note of the printer as well; if it's not the Ricoh printer for the ELLs, then your print job will not be received). You would see a window popping up asking for your username and password, both which are your Student ID number. Type them both out and hit Enter. If you would like to see/make sure that your print job is sent, you can look for Start Menu > Ringdale > Client Administration. Under the Print Jobs tab, you should be able to see your print job.

Next, get up from chair and move towards printer with your papers, and insert papers into the topmost Tray 1. Gently push it back, to avoid its internals from breaking.

After, ensure printer is on (the On button is on your top right), and that the Printer button on your left has a lighted up LED.

Enter pin number (eg 123456) onto the black box on printer (not the printer itself) and press #. If the pin works, there are two beeps. If it does not, three beeps will sound.

Warmest regards,
Zia Shah

Locations to eat outside food in IMU

2009-12-02T22:51:00.000+08:00

Dear all,

Please note that the following are places where students can eat outside food. When eating at these locations please remember to clean up after yourself.

There are now tables outside of the student lounge for the purpose of bringing outside food there. We will try and get fans installed there as soon as possible as well. Just remember not to eat on the couch as this has proven to form unsightly stains.

Security Issues

2009-11-24T15:31:00.000+08:00

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:

1. Comply to the Dress Code from 6 AM to 6 PM (even if you are on study break).
2. 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

Results of the Canteen Satisfaction Survey

2009-10-22T15:36:00.000+08:00

Dear all,

Here is a summary of the results of the Canteen Satisfaction Survey. We are currently working alongside with administration to deal with feedback we received.

We got an overwhelming response of 284 students and below is the summary of the survey result.

General Questions
How often do you eat the canteen food in a month?

If you do eat the canteen food, which caterer do you usually buy from?

What do you think of the quality of the food served?

What do you think of the service from the caterer you usually order from?

What do you think of the cleanliness and general ambience of the Canteen?

Jumbo Caterers
From here onwards the questions get more specific as they are for improving the services offered by Jumbo.

During exam periods how long would you like Jumbo to extend their services until?

If Jumbo were to offer food for high tea what would you like them to sell?

People may select more than one checkbox, so percentages may add up to more than 100%.

If you live in the apartments near IMU and Jumbo offered to cater food for you would you buy from them?

How many days in a week would you cater from them?

What price range would you be willing to pay for the food that will be catered per meal?

Warmest regards,
Zia Shah

HALLOWEEN 30 OCT 2009

2009-10-22T15:27:00.000+08:00

Dear all,

In 2007 IMU adopted Kampung Orang Asli Serendah as one of it's homes for it's Community and Social Responsibility Programme.

One of the challenges faced by the Orang Asli there is unclean water. Without proper water supply, the residents are vulnerable to many water-borne illnesses. The idea of raising funds is to be able to provide them with a manual water pump. Each pump (+ installation of the pump) costs about RM 2500, and we hope to raise enough money for at least one (or more) pump(s). This will enable the residents to have a supply of properly sanitized water and reduce the number of residents with water-borne illnesses.

And so in order to raise funds for the water pump(s), SRC Bukit Jalil will be hosting a HalloweenNight celebration and you're invited!

Tickets can be purchased from any of the Vice-Presidents and are for only RM 12!

If you are planning to bring people outside of IMU you will need to provide us with their:

Name
IC/Passport Number
Handphone number

For any other enquiries please e-mail imusrc@gmail.com.

We hope to see you there! :)

Warmest regards,

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

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

Acoustic Night

2009-10-18T11:11:00.000+08:00

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!

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

Canteen Survey

2009-10-14T17:47:00.000+08:00

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

HIV

2009-10-14T17:44:00.000+08:00

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
to*the event details as follows:

Date : 24th October 2009 (Saturday)

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 or 603-2273 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.
