RMIT University Student Union Third Quarter Report
RMIT University Student Union Third Quarter Report Reporting Period: 1 July – 30 September 2017 RMIT UNIVERSITY STUDENT UNION President’s Report What a massive quarter for the RMIT University Student Union! This period is always an exciting one for RUSU, as it means it’s election time - a fantastic opportunity for students to express what kind of leadership and direction they want from their student union. The election was hard-fought, as usual, but fair, as always. This year saw a significant increase in the number of votes posted from last year, a sure sign that students are actively aware of RUSU but also that students across RMIT’s campuses are being heard. We look forward to welcoming a new group of student advocates later in the year, and we can’t wait to see what kind of energy they bring. Speaking of RMIT’s various campuses, we have seen great progress this quarter in our engagement plan for Point Cook. We are now proudly running a free regular lunch event at Point Cook, something students attending this campus have missed out on for a long time! Bundoora has seen a huge amount of events and activities this quarter, as has Brunswick. We’re really pleased with the way RUSU has engaged with these outer campuses, and it’s a great credit to the staff and student representatives who work with and represent these particular student communities. On the City campus, RUSU was proud to open our new activity space in the NAS precinct. Located just beneath our new front office, the space will give our clubs and departments the room to hold large-scale events and training sessions that would not be possible in our other spaces. -
04 Quarterly Report 2017 WEB.Pdf
RMIT University Student Union Fourth Quarter Report Reporting Period: 1 October – 31 December 2017 President’s Report s we come to the end of the year, it’s the perfect time to reflect on 2017 and the many A fantastic things the RMIT University Student Union has been able to achieve. We’re proud of the progress we have made throughout the year and the continued hard work of our student representatives and team of staff. With the completion of the New Academic Street, RUSU was able to finally re-open our Realfoods cafe. The new space in Building 8 has been a long time coming, but it looks fantastic and we can’t wait to really embrace it in 2018. It’s important for students to have access to affordable healthy, ethical, and sustainable food and drinks on campus, and we’re so pleased with how the new storefront has turned out. Constitutional changes do not happen very often, but in 2017 we were able to make a very significant one with the introduction of an Indigenous Officer position on the Student Union Council. The first RUSU Indigenous Officer, Jedda Rocha Costa started her term on 1 November. Welcome Jedda! On a personal note, I was honoured to be elected the President of RUSU for another year and will continue to advocate for the rights of all students while ensuring that RUSU upholds its high standards. We’re looking forward to 2018 and working with the University to make sure the needs of students are always at the centre of decision making at RMIT. -
Rmit University Student Union: Third Quarter Report Reporting Period: 1 July – 30 September 2016 President's Report
rmit university student union: third quarter report reporting period: 1 july – 30 september 2016 president's report Ariel ZOHAR he third quarter was a busy one for the RMIT University Student T Union, with September hosting the annual student council elections, a variety of important campaigns, and of course numerous events across all three Melbourne campuses. With new tickets running and more than 3000 votes cast, the 2016 RUSU elections again saw students making the most of the opportunity to have a say in how their student union is run. On a more personal note, I was very pleased to be elected to the University Council. It is with great gratitude and humility that I accept the responsibility of advocating on behalf of all RMIT students. I look forward to bringing to light the numerous challenges, issues, and problems faced by the University’s large and diverse student body. While I am sad to be finishing my role of RUSU president in the near future, I am excited for what 2017 may bring for both RUSU and myself. Sadly, RUSU recently said goodbye to professor Owen Hughes, whose door was always open to us, and whom always lent a respectful and listening ear during his five years as Dean of Students. With his support, advice, and mentoring, the student voice has continued to grow at RMIT. Owen has been a great ally, and a great friend. He will be missed, but his legacy won’t be forgotten. We greatly appreciate his efforts, and thank him for his support of our organisation. -

THIRD QUARTER REPORT REPORTING PERIOD 01/07/2013–30/09/2013 ░ su.rmit.edu.au ░ facebook.com/RUSUpage ░ twitter.com/RMITSU ░ youtube.com/RUSUonline ░ President’s Report July to September has been a booming quarter for RUSU, with the success of the first half of the year continuing. Stu- dent volunteers completed over 1,000 hours of accredited service this quarter, with over 70 new volunteers joining our James Michelmore team. This quarter also saw RUSU add two new training opportunities and a camp to the volunteer program. Funding has been secured for the continuation and expansion of the volunteer program in 2014, with a focus on improved professional development opportunities. Three RMIT students have also joined the RUSU team at Bundoora to complete placements as part of their studies. Almost 20,000 free lunches were handed out to students this quarter. The addition of free fresh fruit to many of our weekly events has been welcomed by students across the University. Over 8,000 pieces of fruit and hundreds of healthy cookbooks have been given away to students as part of our Healthy Eating Program. A number of new student clubs joined RUSU’s ranks this quarter as almost $25,000 in grants were distributed to support student activities on and off campus. Student rights cases continue to be an area of growth; up over 50% on last quarter, with the number of new cases opened already surpassing last year’s total. The depart- ment continues to focus on concerns about the University’s proposed ‘Fitness For Study’ policies as part of the proposed changes to the Student Conduct Regulation. -
