  • THIRD QUARTER Report Reporting Period 01/07/2013–30/09/2013
    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.

    rmit university student union: second quarter report ░ reporting period: 1 april 2015 – 30 june 2015 su.rmit.edu.au rusupage rmitsu rmitsu rusuonline ░ president's report Second quarter. Autumnal hues become the defining feature of Melbourne. Clothing begins to be layered, and the serious business of study gets underway. With the carefree summer months in the rear-view mirror, RUSU has carried through the momentum from a great start to 2015 through this reporting period. Himasha We held our first external event for FONSEKA Bundoora students for some time, being a Good Friday Eve party. We held a successful boat cruise in April, hosted Music Week in Alumni Courtyard and our end of exams party in June proved as popular as any in recent memory. The New Academic Street project continues to loom as a disruption to our activities and the broader student body, and we remain in constant contact with the University to work through this period. Our growth in financial membership remains encouraging, with our 2015 target almost reached by the halfway stage of the year. This result will allow RUSU to continue to deliver a great suite of programs and activities for the benefit of our members. In mid-May, we conducted our annual general meeting, as required under the relevant legislation. We used this process as an opportunity to update some of our departmental branding. We found that some our of departments had somewhat dated naming conventions. I am pleased to say that these changes were passed unanimously, and details of this can be found in these pages.
