Opus Suggestion Box

Suggestion Box

Located inside and outside the OPUS office is a Question/Suggestion Box where part-time students can ask questions, provide comments, or offer solutions. 

The Board of Directors look at these questions/suggestions, discuss them, and then offer solutions.

"Just wanted to let everyone who works here, you all are doing a great job...keep up the good work!! Your staff is awesome! You couldn’t ask for better help anywhere else"

Questions

  • If the students cannot find the professor’s name on the calendar, they can check with the department secretary for more recent information. 
  • The registrar posts information online only when they receive it from the department secretary. 
  • There is no existing deadline (e.g. before classes start) for the department secretary to let the registrar’s office know of the name of the professor. 
  • OPUS will further look into areas where they can advocate on behalf of the students on this topic. 

OPUS has complete wireless internet access if students wish to use their laptops or other devices.

  • The OPUS office has installed additional computer terminals for student and board use. 
  • These computers are equipped for printing, which is only 10 cents per page. These computers allow students to check their webmail, view their courses and print out their class notes and projects. 

 

Suggestions

  • In order to keep the OPUS lounge area from unintentional littering, the OPUS Board prefers the general use of the garbage bin in the kitchen area. Adherence to this policy will keep the OPUS Lounge more conducive for everyone. 
  • OPUS finds that the garbage in the kitchen is sufficient as there is a possibility of food missing the garbage bin. 
  • There are recycle bins placed in the kitchen and near the xerox machine in the office area for the recycling of paper only. 
  • OPUS feels that by making the lounge more social-friendly, it can create an atmosphere where students can relax and, get to know one another. 
  • There are other areas on campus where students can go to have quiet study all year round. This Quiet Study Space which was newly renovated in summer 2011 is located on the 2nd floor of the CAW Student Centre. And of course, you can go to the Leddy Library.
