Thursday, March 17, 2005 Top 10 updates in NTU Hihi dearwe.. ! Decided to update you on the lately happenings in NTU so that you wun feel so lost when you're back... No pics though :( but dun worry.. it's chock full of information!! wahaha...Number 1 on the list, we have.... *drum roll* 1) MPE has offcially changed its name to MAE (School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering) Yesh... a new name a new beginning. It takes a while to get used to though. According to the dean's message: "The School has recently been refitted with a new name following the inception of a new division in Aerospace Engineering. This new division launches the Bachelor of Engineering in Aerospace Engineering, yada yada..." haha.. his message very long, can go to the MAE website if you're interested in reading more... 2) NTU will be converting to the GPA system also known as Grade Point Average. If i'm not wrong, it's on a scale of 4... the higher the better! Supposed to be more transparent with regards to where each student stand with their grades. Looking at the grades, everyone will roughly know whether they are 1st or 2nd class standard... 3) Tuition fees has been increased by 5% per year, not only NTU.. for NUS and SMU too... 4) The shuttle bus route B is changed to a new route... it no longers goes on the loop around NIE.. the bus will cut thru in between hall 12 and NIE and continue to hall 8-11. Heh, you probably dun really care for this since you no need to take shuttle bus! haha, but very hard to say.. scarly your motorbike gone-ded!! *touch wood* 5) All the mouse (as in the computer mouse) in Lib 1 are changed to infra-red ones!! Finally!! *Hallelujah* 6) 2 rows of old red computer chairs in Lib 1 are changed to comfy blue ones! Can roll around somemore!! But got to fight for a space cos only got 2 rows.. 7) The Annex at the top of the hill (remember we went up there to the SAO before?), it's name is changed to Student Services Centre now... Sounds fake eh... 8) There's a new cafe called "Cafe Al Fresco" jus next to this "Student Services Centre"... Think it's a similar concept to Coffee Club... Literally have tables right out in the sun.. think got those sun umbrellas also... haha.. i havent been there though.. seems quite far away.. *lazy.. muahaha* 9) McDonald's is still around.. *Hurrah* ... 10) Sadly, "Burnz" in Canteen 13 change boss liao, heard that the western food not so great now... *boo hoo... no more mixed grill for dearwe liao!!* Alright, that sums up my top 10 list.. heh heh.. hope it's not too dry for u! Tata for now, me love!!! 0 comments
