MY IDEAL CAMPUS LIFE




SRC INFORMATION: MEETING WITH ITD





29th November 2011, ITD Office - There was a meeting between Students’ Representative Council 2010/2011 with ITD Unit regarding to wireless services provided in IIUM. Our meeting began with a short briefing on the amount of current wireless provided at every campus. As presented, total amount of wireless provided in all campuses is 285 mpbs where Gombak Campus is the highest with the total is 114 mbps. This has made Gombak campus as the highest compared to the other campuses;InderaMahkota Campus, ISTAC, IIiBF and Centre for Foundation Studies, PJ.

Since students’ welfare always becomes SRC’s first priority, lots of questions and issues were being asked and discussed during our meeting. First issue is on the blocking of specific websites which have interrupted the wireless services. This has resulted for other students unable to get the connections. As ITD staffs responded, IIUM is encouraging academic freedom. So by blocking certain websites is against the policy. However, regarding to this matter, ITD Unit is always monitoring on the websites search by the students by using IIUM wireless services.


Furthermore, another issue has been raised is on pre-registration which students always have difficulties to register their courses. The response given, it is due to the problem of website which is monitored by Administration and Records. They have stressed during the meeting for the low connection of wireless especially in mahallah, it is actually because of limitation for each AP to provide the connection. According to them, each AP is able to support maximum 30 users at one time. But as always occurs, there were 70 and even more users are requesting for the wireless at one time. 


At the same time, it has been suggested as SRC should educate the students using the IIUM wireless. In order to make sure our friends do not miserably searching for the connection, it is advisable to browse internet only at appropriate duration and academic and beneficial purposes as we are sharing with other numerous of users.


On the other hand, ITD Unit is actually aware of low wireless connection at mahallah since there were several complaints made by students pertaining to this matter. The problem is due to bad planning during the construction of mahallah. Despite of large and growing number of users compared to ability for the provider to support the services, ITD Unitis initiating to loan and set up a few APs at the critical areas especially at postgraduate block in mahallah by the middle of this month (December) as a short term plan to cater this problem.
As regard to this issue, ITD Unit is in progress to improvise wireless services the other areas especially at mahallah by the middle of 2012

SRC Komited Perjuang Kebebasan dan Keadilan



Pada 21 Oktober yang lalu, dengan mengadakan suatu pertemuan dengan pihak pentadbiran UIAM bagi mendapatkan penjelasan berkenaan isu Prof. Aziz Bari, Presiden SRC, mewakili suara mahasiswa UIAM tetap tegas dengan pendirian bahawa peristiwa tersebut telah mencabuli hak kebebasan bersuara (freedom of speech) dan kebebasan akademik (freedom of academic). Dalam pertemuan pada hari itu, beliau menuntut beberapa perkara antaranya mendesak pihak UIAM menarik semula penggantungan terhadap Prof. Aziz Bari dan diadakan perbicaraan terbuka (public hearing). Alhamdulillah, pada 24 Oktober yang lalu, UIAM menarik semula penggantungan tersebut.

Kelihatan Presiden SRC bersama pimpinan mahasiswa yang lain sedang bernegosiasi untuk mendapatkan kebenaran masuk bagi menyerahkan memorandum kepada YB Menteri.

Namun, meyakini bahawa penarikan semula penggantungan tersebut, bukanlah bermakna kes tersebut telah selesai, kerana Prof. Aziz Bari masih perlu melalui proses siasatan dan perbicaraan serta akan berhadapan dengan pelbagai kemungkinan tindakan dan hukuman.

Semalam, 25 Oktober, Presiden SRC sekali lagi mengetuai delegasi pimpinan-pimpinan mahasiswa UIAM, terus membuat desakan dengan bertindak menyerahkan memorandum kepada YB Dato’ Seri Hishamuddin.

Sedang menunggu keputusan kebenaran masuk ke dewan. Alhamdulillah, akhirnya dibenarkan. Namun hanya 3 orang sahaja yang dibenarkan. Pihak media juga dilarang memasuki dewan untuk membuat liputan.

Antara yang terkandung dalam memorandum tersebut ialah untuk mendesak Kerajaan Malaysia agar :

  1. Memberi kebebasan intelek kepada ahli akademik dalam menyuarakan pendapat.
  2. Setiap ahli dalam bidang masing-masing diberi hak untuk megeluarkan pandangan seiring dengan ilmu yang dimiliki dalam bidang mereka.
  3. Membatalkan siasatan ke atas Prof. Aziz Bari kerana beliau dalam kes ini, menjadi mangsa akibat  kebebasan akademik yang disekat.
Presiden SRC berjalan keluar dewan setelah selesai menyerahkan memorandum.

Selesai menyerahkan memorandum, Presiden SRC menegaskan :

“We already submitted the memorandum by hand to YB. Dato’ Seri Hishamuddin. We will follow up this issue... This is our first memorandum... If there is no further action taken by them, we will fight till the end...”

“JUSTICE for Prof. Aziz Bari”




BROTHERHOOD GATHERING PROGRAMME-WE STRIVE OVER THE DA’WAH




September 28th –Alhamdullilah, indeed all the praises are only deserve for Allah s.w.t as He is the one who has given us strength, spirits and chance to run this event during this semester. After all the struggles, this gathering was successfully run by all committees. 

The main objective of this event is to have an open discussion with Da’wah & Tarbiah Secretariat from all societies, MRC and also with international representatives which have quite large community in this university. Another objective of this Brotherhood Gathering is to preserve Islamic environment which has been ‘eroded’ as this university.

Generally, this program has achieved its goal when we have received a large number of participants. They have showed such a great of interest by vigorously responds to each questions and opinions asked by the Moderator. The discussion has become a remarkable indicator to show that our community is concerning and looking forward for the resolution on this ummatic problem in IIUM especially. Truly, they are still craving and waiting for the da’wah to be delivered and spread among them.

After having discussion for 3 hours, there are some opinions and suggestions made by the representatives. Their suggestions are as follow:

1.       All communities of IIUM must have the awareness of spreading da’wah.
2.       Increase the efforts and make targets to those who are not really interested with Islamic programmes and values on spreading the da’wah.
3.       Continue to make humbly requests to IIUM Administration, since the power of implementing Islamic environment is belong to them. 

From what have been discussed by the students through this open discussion, we can see the keen of interests, feelings and hopes from participants to make sure this university always stick with its mission of ‘TRIPLE ICE’ particularly in the matter of Islamization. 

So, let us hold our hands together and make our ukhuwwah stronger. Say to them that we love Islam and we shall always strive over da’wah!!
