The SRC of 2021 would like to formally extend compliments of the New Year to students
and staff members of Rhodes 老虎机游戏_pt老虎机-平台*官网. As we assume office, with the understanding of
what a difficult year 2020 was. The outbreak of the coronavirus has introduced a new normal
to us all. Therefore we acknowledge the various difficulties that students might have
experienced, such as the inability to smoothly transition and participate in remote learning.
We hope our dedication to proactive leadership will allow us to heed the cries of students
Official Communication Platforms
We would like to introduce the new SRC Facebook page titled ‘Rhodes 老虎机游戏_pt老虎机-平台*官网 SRC’
which will be running in companion to the existing SRC Facebook group. The page comes
with features that are beneficial for efficient communication.
To list a few:
? It makes information from the SRC easier to find on Facebook and students will be
able to interact without the requirement of requesting to be accepted into a group.
? A page also allows for our contact details to constantly be available on the bio
section.
We want to encourage students to direct their SRC related queries either via our e-mail
addresses or on our official social media platforms. We are aware of other existing student
pages where students raise and discuss pertinent issues on, we will be observing those
platforms however we must emphasise that we will only respond to these queries, concerns,
and suggestions on our official SRC platforms. The SRC group will continue operating as we
wish to utilize it for the purpose of informing the student body in-depth about policies and
student governance in the context of Rhodes 老虎机游戏_pt老虎机-平台*官网.
We call for our Postgraduate students to also make note of the platform we have created for
them. We are aware of the different concerns and queries that they may have and with the
assistance of the first-ever Postgraduate Affairs Councillor, we would like to interact with
them on their ‘Rhodes Postgraduate Affairs 2021’ Facebook group.
Students’ Concerns
We have received a number of queries from students with different concerns pertaining but
not limited to allowances, operation of the oppidan bus, tuition and residence fees increase,
laptops as well as appeals. These concerns have been noted and with the 老虎机游戏_pt老虎机-平台*官网 recently
re-opening, we will start engaging with the relevant stakeholders about them. Students will be
communicated to within due course.
