1. Report on SONA forum Around twenty (20) students came to watch the SONA. Post-SONA forum will be held on Friday afternoon, July 27, 2012. However, there is an issue on speakers. Prof. Roque has not replied while Prof. Hilbay has not given his confirmation yet. Ms. Morada or any member of PAC will talk with Ms. Dio within the week to fix the issues regarding the forum.
2. Updates on College issues a. Wi-fi issue The opinions of the students are fragmented. There are those students who are appreciative of the issue and there are also those who strongly oppose the imposition of fees.
The proposed fees and implementation of the new system are as follows: o P10.00 per hour o P18.00 per 2 hours o P25.00 per 3 hours o The piepaiu cards will be released either by the Beans office oi 0CS o If the students already consumed the allowed number of hours for internet usage they neeu to buy anothei piepaiu caiu o Minute charging for internet usage is possible since the law library already has a software for its implementation
Mr. Nisperos talked with the Dean regarding the proposal of the students. Mr. Nisperos proposed that the internet bandwidth be divided to provide two (2) services: free and paid internet services. For free internet services, the students may use up to 2 mbps. For the paid internet services, the students may use up to 14 mbps. The Dean manifested that he is willing to give concession for the need of the students. He also said that he will talk with his team to discuss if the scheme proposed by the students is possible.
Ni }avelosa askeu if auuitional iouteis will be auueu since theie aie black spots inside our building. This issue will be referred to the Office of the Dean. Mr. Tayao commented that instead of using the margin of speed as the selling factor for the paid system, might as well use accessibility of sites. He added that the internet is being used for academic purposes and manifested his opposition to the new payment scheme.
Mr. Nisperos thereafter clarified the DILNET services of the college. The internet fee paid by the students at the start of the semester is for the 20 hours for internet provided by DILNET. In order to maximize the DILNET internet services, the LSG should talk with the University Student Council to propose improvements and negotiate the terms and conditions for the use of DILNET services. Mr. Javelosa commented that the duty to talk with the DILNET provider is the College administration. Hence, it is the Dean should be the one to talk with the provider. However, the Dean, during his talk with Mr. Nisperos, clarified that we should first discuss with the USC to clarify the steps to be undertaken.
Actions taken and to be taken: Mr. Nisperos, Ms. Reyes and Mr. Boller are tasked to talk with the IT people and explain the proposed implementation of the new ISP
