Again, bad management of fundsOriginally posted by fudgester:Unlike NKF, we don't have gold-plated taps... we have sensor-activated taps in the NUS Central Library.
And a gleaming new administration building.
And yet they can have the gall to tell us that they can't afford to carry out emergency repairs to several lecture theatres that leak terribly when it rains.
And they dare whine when only 1% of the NUS alumni responded to their call for donations... the way I see it, if you treat your students like crap, then don't expect them to think fondly of you.![]()
maybe you've been earmarked for "mono" intakes ....Originally posted by stellazio:nb, 80% of my friends going tekong in june/july.. wtf.........![]()
They paid $2k for normal chairs?Originally posted by the Bear:wondering what happened to that post long ago about $2,000 conference room chairs in NTU....

Be like the rest of the alumini and not donateOriginally posted by fudgester:To be frank, when I first entered NUS, I was a matter of personal pride to me. I was proud of the fact that I had made it all the way to university after all those years of slogging and toiling in Secondary school and JC.
But after they raised tuition fees for two years in a row, I got totally disillusioned. They didn't even bother trying to consult the student body on the second fee hike - as though we're just a source of money to them. Hell, as a result of this, I was forced to take out a second student loan from DBS .
They in fact got into discussions to raise it again earlier this year - but luckily they finally had the sense to limit it to foreign students only. But they refused to freeze the fees for the next few years - good luck to my juniors.
Thank you, NUS. I wanted to love you, but you made me hate you.![]()

prata nathan is the fucking chancellor right? send the fucker a nasty email and force him to at least do some work and fight for the undergrads instead of sitting on his arse in the istana all day long?Originally posted by fudgester:To be frank, when I first entered NUS, I was a matter of personal pride to me.
