FROM THE DIRECTOR’S DESK - WELLNESS & REHABILITATION SERVICES
Further to our earlier communication please note the following:
We are aware that transition from secondary school to the University and from home to a new environment leads to a culture shock on your part. For smooth transition please observe the following:
1.Read the student handbook and know the various support systems and where they are found. These include:
- Directorate of student affairs * Gender Equity & Empowerment
- Accommodation * Security Services
- Chaplaincies
- Health Services
2.Be cautious - not quick to trust – to avoid being taken advantage of by strangers you hardly know
- Do not walk alone at night and keep safe by not keeping late hours outside your residence
- Seek the services of the departmental academic adviser early if in doubt of the programme you have been admitted to
- Ensure that you adhere to fees payment and unit registration deadlines
- Attend all lectures and other requirements of your course like CATs and Assignments
- Be informed that examination irregularities lead to discontinuation
- Be informed that if found smoking, in possession or trading in cannabis sativa (Bhang) will lead to disciplinary action
- Be very careful about the relationships you form and guard against unplanned pregnancies, exploitation and manipulation.
