The SRC took this as their mandate to actually go out and ask what students feel about the date changes.
A student who requested anonymity said that NUST administrators were handling the University as their homes.
She added that this is not good as it further destroys the relations between the administrators and students.
When interviewed Shadowlit Ndou said"there are no demonstrations here we are just talking to the students to get their views about the sudden change in sim-break dates. We can never hold a demonstration we do our things peacefully"
Another student Andile khumalo said this was a good initiative by the SRC even though they are not reproachable as they also have their shortcomings.
Universe Magadzire also commended the work of the SRC by engaging the students in their busy schedules.
She added that: "If only the administrators would follow suite and engage students about issues to do with their well-being it would ensure good relations on campus"
The institution administrators should by all means involve their subjects before making decisions as it is most students have already told their parents about the break days to tell them about the change in dates, parents will think that students are lying said Linketsang Moyo.
In future relations should not be sour between the administrators and their subjects they should be strong so that the University is worldly recognised fro being the best as mutually beneficial relations are nurtured and maintained for the well- being of the Institution.
