What's it about?
Many students may not feel like they have the opportunity to speak about issues that are quite damning and
can cause stress by identifying them.
What's happened?
RUSU can take the following actions:
- Reiterate at committee training and on the RUSU website that any student can give feedback or share
concerns about RUSU Activities Student Groups to the student activities inbox. These can be dealt with in a
confidential manner- relevant staff members will know who submitted the feedback, but the student’s name
will not be shared with any other student.
- Include a confidential feedback box where students can give feedback on RUSU Activities Student Groups.
This could be placed on the website so students could give feedback.
- Share the names of RUSU Activity Student Groups who have been disaffiliated with brief reason for
disaffiliation, e.g. behavioural issues or not for reaching minimum membership requirement. This would take
place at Activity Group Meetings. Activity Group minutes are published on the website for students to access
this information.
Important notes:
RUSU cannot usually share information relating to disciplinary procedures.
RUSU cannot provide an anonymous reporting process (where staff do not know who submitted report) because if
there are welfare concerns, RUSU would not be able to get in touch with the student, and if it was a
complaint, RUSU would not be able to deal with the complaint.
What's next?
Daisy will work with Student Activities and the Marketing Department to implement these actions.
