NOTICE ON ADJUSTMENT OF INTERNET DATA SUPPORT FOR ONLINE CLASSES AND

FOOD CHARGES DUE TO DISRUPTIONS DURING THE START OF THE SPRING SEMESTER 2022

27 June 2022

The College would like to acknowledge the collective efforts and understanding from all constituents/stakeholders - students, parents, faculty and staff as we look forward to the successful completion of the Spring Semester 2022 in spite of difficulties and challenges posed by the lockdown right at the start of the semester. Along with the graduating cohort, the College is looking forward to the 11^th graduation celebrations which will have our first cohort of BSc Nursing students graduating.

As all are aware, owing to the lockdowns and associated challenges right at the start of the Spring Semester, the College had announced internet data support for online classes for Day Scholars, CE students, and those boarding students who were genuinely unable to report on campus. Due to the continuing uncertainties then, this support was announced to be reconciled at the end of the semester which has now been worked out as communicated earlier. In working out these adjustments, the College has noted that it was able to open for all CE programmes in the face-to-face mode from 30^th March 2022 and for all regular programmes from 4^th April respectively.

With the semester completing in a few weeks’ time, the College would like to inform that these reconciliations have been carried out as outlined below and will be eligible subject to fulfilling the mentioned terms and conditions:

1. Please note that for those students with any pending dues (such as outstanding module repeat fees, etc.), the refund adjustment will first be applied to settle outstanding dues and any remaining portion if any shall be credited towards Fall Sem 2022 fees.

2. For the graduating students, these adjustments will be refunded (less any outstanding dues) along with the security deposit amounts at the time of issuance of the transcripts.

3. As has been the practice, these adjustments will be applicable for only students who had to pay their fees excluding all types of scholarship students (irrespective of funding agency).

Additional options for students to access rtcCloud online resources

Google Shared Drive: visit https://drive.google.com/ as usual and be sure you are logged in with your @rtc.bt credentials. Click on Shared Drives. 

Look for this:  

   Click the star -->  

Microsoft OneDrive is cached around the world but its performance is not as strong as Google Drive within Bhutan. Within Bhutan and especially on campus, https://cloud.rtc.bt would still be the fastest option. However, OneDrive is also a backup option in case cloud.rtc.bt is not working adequately. Moreover, OneDrive presents useful tools particularly for files created by the Office package (Word, Excel, Powerpoint). Since some students may not have compatible software, these web-based apps can do the trick of opening files from the OneDrive cloud mirror in the user's browser, for example to play voice-over powerpoints even without the desktop version of the Powerpoint software and using older operating systems (like Windows 7).

 

For those with Windows 10 but no full version of Office for their computer still wishing to view files on their own computer offline (not in the browser), Powerpoint Mobile is a free tool for this: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/powerpoint-mobile/9wzdncrfjb5q

 

EXAMPLE -- Open Office documents directly to view them in the Office365 Online apps, even play voice-over powerpoints: 

 

Effective immediately, the Admin Office, in conjunction with Estate & SSD offices is pleased to announce that the newly built laundry unit is now fully operational. The new laundry unit is located close to the college dining/mess, roughly about 20m from the RTC-SEISA Fitness Centre.

With this, the existing Laundry Shop located below the dining will be consolidated and relocated at the new unit with immediate effect. The AFD would like to thank the current Laundry Shop which was run and managed by the students.

With an enhanced set up and dedicated staff attached, the new laundry unit is expected to operate for longer hours and provide better services.

    The students are directed to go through the following two Policies in the Student hand Book:

   21. Tobacco Policy       

  22.   Alcohol & Drug Policy

It has been observed & reported that these 2 Policies are not being heeded to, whereby rampant smoking in the college premises is evident, controlled substances are being abused and dispersed, thereby making the College environment unconducive to learning.

Therefore all the students are hereby notified that STRICT MONITORING will be exercised, to the extent of being frisked whenever deemed necessary. And if found violating the policies, will be subject to disciplinary action.
