End of Semester 3
Just in case some of you do not know about this, communication skills are now formally assessed in the OSCE.

IMU Cup
The annual IMU cup is about to come soon. The tentative date for this event is from 3rd of September onwards. All those who will be representing our batch shall start training after EOS 3. *we must gambate for Imu cup oh!!*

Changes in Reproductive System Course
Introduction of "Guided Reading Session". This session will be included in the timetable and students will be given a list of reading materials (reference texts or online articles) which is specific and relevant to the topic. The content of this session is examinable. *gasp - more work!*

Introduction of "Integrated Medical Seminar". A talk on a particular topic will be given and then a few students will be selected (not sure yet how the selection will be done) to do some research and to present their findings to the class.

IMU New Building
The construction of the annex wing – the new block should be completed by the middle of this year. Once it is completed, there will be renovations of the main building (the building that we have our activities all these while) from ground floor to the 3rd floor. There’ll be a connection between the annex wing and the 4th floor. Most of our activities shall be carried out in the new building and 4th floor. I’ll update you all once I get more information from the SRC. *wow, new building eh, hope it's nice!!*

New Canteen
Yapaf Catering and Restaurant Sdn. Bhd. is now taking over Pak Amir’s Cafeteria. The owner is Mr Haji Zainal. The canteen had started operation on 28th May 2007 (Monday). "Let's go and give them support...!!!"

Forum
It is a sad thing that the IMU forum was hacked few weeks ago, but don't worry as the SRC are now working on revamping the Forum. Many thanks to Aditya and other SRC members for their hard work.

Class Allocation Timetable
Timetable of all programmes and all batches in IMU is put up on the notice board at ground floor between CSU and ping pong room. It tells us the place where a particular batch is having lecture or other activities at a particular time. This is to prevent students from complaining about being chased out from e-lab by the pharmacy. Please take note of the date and time that the e-lab will be occupied for teaching purpose and avoid using that lab during that particular hour.

Virus
Please remember to scan your thumbdrives every time you use it and before you remove it. *or else your comp kena virus then you know liao!*

Infected Laptop & Anti-virus Software
If your laptop happen to be infected by virus in the campus and you wish to reformat your laptop,
Or if you want to install a new anti-virus software (AVG antivirus – free edition), you can borrow the installation guide from Kee Ping or from the SRC room.

Color Printer
A new color printer has been installed in the plug and play room (next to e-lab 1). Instructions to do color printing can be found there. Whoever doing any printing in the room please remember to check the printing status first before clicking the 'print' button. The default status is set to color printing. RM 1 will be charged per color page.

Intercom and Log Book
Intercom in the e-lab can be used to call Helpdesk for assistance. Instructions to use the intercom can be found above the intercom itself. Please remember to jot down any complaint in the log book regarding the facilities in the e-labs.

Dress Code
All students are to follow the dress code in the IMU premises.

Punctuality
Please be punctual for all lectures and other activities as stated in the timetable.
