Ms Sharon Connor, Coordinator, Student Representative Council, spoke to this item. Ms Connor provided background on the funds received from the former CQ TAFE Student Association and advised funds have been transferred to CQUniCares to provide emergency grants of up to $1000 for VET students affected by the COVID-19 crisis.

REVIEW OF ACTION SHEET Item 1: Suspension of Moodle Access Ongoing - The Chair invited comments regarding proposed changes to Moodle suspension processes. Ms Joanne Perry, Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Student Experience, reported that as a result of COVID-19, Moodle access for students who had not paid fees by census date would not be suspended during Term 1 2020. Ms Perry also advised that additional changes are planned for an improved collection process.

Part B: Matters finalised or remaining for discussion Page 2 of 5 Student Representative Council – 21 April 2020 6. STUDENT SERVICES AND AMENITIES FEE FUNDING REVISED BUDGET ALLOCATIONS Ms Joanne Perry, Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Student Experience and Governance, spoke to this item. Ms Perry reported that the allocation of Student Services and Amenities Fees (SSAF) for 2020 would be adjusted due to a reduction in projected student numbers for the year. It was noted that SSAF allocation might vary from term to term based on student numbers. Ms Perry also confirmed it would be possible to reallocate unused funds previously allocated to events such as CQUni Games, UniSport Nationals and the Student Leadership Conference. Members discussed and noted: • The importance of maintaining services such as Studiosity • Why CQU continues to charge SSAF while other universities do not • The preference for SSAF fees to be spent in the year received rather than rolling over to the following year • International student fees and available assistance for those continuing to study in Terms 2 and 3, 2020 • The possibility of utilising SSAF funds to assist individual students experiencing difficulty transitioning to online studies. Ms Perry noted that legislative requirements preclude the allocation of SSAF funds to individual students. However, Ms Perry reminded members of CQUni Care funding and confirmed that other way to provide assistance would be investigated, including discounted textbooks at the bookshop, and waiving printing and other costs incurred as a result of the transition to online study. Resolution: The Student Representative Council discussed the updated allocation of Student Services and Amenities Fees for 2020 and unanimously endorsed the recommendation. 7. CHAIR AND DEPUTY CHAIR ELECTION Ms Sharon Connor, Coordinator, Student Representative Council, spoke to this item. Ms Connor advised that the positions of Chair and Deputy Chair positions for 2020 are now open for election. SRC members interested in the positions are to self-nominate.

Ms Connor advised that elected members will commence at the next SRC meeting, to be held on Tuesday, 26 May 2020. 8. STUDENT REPRESENTATIVE COUNCIL ACTIVITY REPORT TERM 3, 2019 Item not starred. The Chair took the report as read and approved it. 9. OTHER BUSINESS 9.1 International and Domestic Student Support Ms Perry and others provided an overview of student support initiatives across the University, including: • other areas are assisting Student Services to contact students and ensure they understand and are coping with new study requirements • newly arrived international students on Melbourne campus were provided with food/care packages to assist them through their isolation period Page 3 of 5 Student Representative Council – 21 April 2020 • ongoing food relief is currently being provided to approximately 400 students weekly on the Melbourne campus; it is hoped to implement similar initiatives on Brisbane and Sydney campuses • the Melbourne campus has provided students in need with access to laptops and internet to enable them to continue with their studies online International students experiencing financial hardship have been offered the opportunity to undertake a part time study load and access to payment plans during Term 1. Members discussed: • the possibility for students to apply for study and other emergency grants to aid with study/loss of income • making calls to students to make them aware of available assistance and how to access it • targeted campaigns for ongoing call outs to students to ensure that no one is being forgotten • ongoing flexibility with study loads and payment plan options • virtual sessions to keep students engaged with the University • SRC members reaching out to their cohort to see what assistance the University may offer as many students are unsure where to turn to • Mailouts to advise students about available support services and how to access them. Members raised the following concerns: • Mr Jeet Mukherjee, Rockhampton and Yeppoon Region Representative, noted that regional international students felt unsupported. Mr Spencer advised that care packs distributed were available to all students who had arrived in Australia and who were required to self-isolate for 14 days on arrival, and recommended he meet with Mr Mukherjee offline to discuss any other perceived gaps for international students • Ms Tarah Bratt, VET Representative, enquired how domestic students were being contacted by the University and noted students are feeling inundated with emails and are unsure where to access relevant information.
