New Students performing Chicken Dance for Cultural Night

Its one of the exhilarating performance by the brothers. They have performed the chicken dance on the stage and they also had invited some committee to dance with them. I found it very funny. Well done guys!

Course Registration

At the end of the day, all the new students went for a course registration. First semester is very important when registering for subjects. It is so important because it will affect your first semester study life in the campus, whether you can adapt to it or not. Besides that, the first semester CGPA also will be determine by the first course registration during Taaruf. Don't worry. You still can change your subjects during the adjustment period. (Dec 16 - Dec 26) For more information, you can check A&R website and also the important dates for Sem 2, 08/09.

New Students taking oath during Bai'ah Ceremony

Bai'ah Ceremony is the most highlighted event during Ta'aruf Week because students will be taking oath in front of the Senate Members of the IIUM.

 

 

Bai'ah Rehearsal is shorter than before

Bai'ah is an oath or pledge that students will have to declare during the orientation. In other university, its like Akujanji. Its the tradition of Taaruf Week in IIUM, both in branch and main campus. This time, students don't have to do rehearsal many times. Its enough just to make it on the day before. Besides that, the Bai'ah script also was shortened. I knew it because I'm the one who doing the multimedia backdrop for the Bai'ah too!

IIUM Campus Tour

Most of the multimedia committee were quite busy in preparing the KYKM videos. Since they have the campus tour slots, I've suggested to screen my old IIUM Virtual Tour video. It was created two years ago for Taaruf July 2006/2007 Intake but it still reliable isn't it? If I have the time, I want to make a better video that shows the Mahallah and other facilities such as stadium etc.

Rules are meant to be broken?

I was the emcee for the Legal SDEC and Security Session. For me, this is the best session because students can know and understand what misbehave that they should have known when studying in IIUM. I also enjoy the pictures in the slides. But I think its better if Legal Unit can include about disciplinary actions that was taken for cases like clubbing.

IIUM Campus Wireless System

During ITD Briefing, the officer main talk about the function of ITD in IIUM and also the implementation of wireless network in the campus. I'm quite agree with one of the sister who asked them about those who don't use laptops. However, I think in the near future, students will be carrying laptop or nettop just like we carry our handphones. Who needs PC anyway.

Sleeping Beauties during Taaruf

After doing Qiyamullail, most of the students are quite sleepy on the morning session. Here are some of the shots that was taken both in Main Auditorium and Experimental Hall.

Qiyamullail at SHAS Mosque IIUM

Qiyamullail activity was conducted at SHAS Mosque. After the last night session, all students sleep at the mosque. About 4am, DnI and other committees wake up the students.

Students learning to sing IIUM Students song

Students were learning to sing IIUM Students Song because they will have to sing the song during the Bai'ah Ceremony on Friday. I hope that they can sing it passionately with high spirit. I pretty like the up-beat version of this song which was re-composed back in 2007.

Taaruf Gimmick was a blast!

If you've missed the gimmick video, now you can watch it online at Youtube. The video took about 10 minutes. The opening ceremony was launched by Dato' Hamidon Abdul Hamid during the Session with Deputy Rector and Opening Ceremony.

Know Your Kulliyah briefing about academic matters

In the afternoon session, students went to their own respective kulliyahs for a briefing about academic matters such as study duration, type of majors and courses as well as what they will have to know about subjects they should register for their new semester. After the briefing, students were required to answer Fundamental Knowledge Test (FKT) about Fardhu Ain as a placement test.

Having lunch at SHAS Mosque courtyard

Students have to eat their lunch at the courtyard but some of them even take the meal to HS cafe. So far, the food is delicious, both for students and committee. Thanks for keeping the cleanliness at the courtyard too. Good job to all Catering committees!

962 students: More students more troubles

According to Sis. Hayatun, there are more direct intake especially oversea students that are coming for registration on the second day. Initially, it was supposed to be only 862 students.That's why some of the students have to sit at the Experimental Hall because is already full at Main Auditorium. Its been quite a tough day for all the committees too as we need to take care of the welfare of some sick students.

Unfortunately, there are also some theft that happen. Not to mention some of them who ditched the briefing session. Whatever it is, we will entertain the students no matter how fussy they are.

Live from Experimental Hall

On the second day, there are more briefings from various divisions such as A&R, Finance, S-DEV, CCAC and also from the respective kulliyah. Experimental Hall was used to support additional students. Live telecast was setup so that the LCD screen will show the same thing as in Main Auditorium. Well this Taaruf also has set a new record where its 'The First Taaruf Week that was held on Two Venues' with the support of CPD Technician. Thank you and congratulation guys.

First day of Taaruf Week on Youtube

Credit to Multimedia committee for the picture and slideshow. During the screening of the video, there was a technical problem with the audio system. We are really sorry for that. Check out the video.

Taaruf Kit distribution at Main Auditorium

Taaruf kit is a backpack for the new students. Inside the kit, there is a batik shirt, a sport shirt and some informative documents, pamhplet and reminders for the new students regarding the flow of the program. The distribution activity was conducted by Registration commitee assisted by Special Task and Catering committees. Click picture for larger size.

I found its quite useful because most sisters don't have backpack unlike brothers. It is also very useful to stuff many items especially for the Qiyamullail session on Thursday.

New home for the new IIUM students

I would like to take this opportunity to welcome my new brothers and sisters to the garden of Knowledge and Virtue. Mahallah registration is the first session where parents will send their son/daughter to their new home, IIUM.

All students from CFS went to Mahallah for the registration while direct intake students had to register at the Main Auditorium lobby.
