Richfield needs to get their act together and learn some order s****s
I as a current student at Richfield Graduate Institute of Technology at the Anton Lambede campus. I have been put through so much drama at this college it is unbelievable firstly there is no order at all in the college the students are put under so much of stress and it is really not fair. Ever since CA test 1 were written lecturers have not attended class to teach us further to prepare us for test two. We students are not only wasting school fees which the college is more concerned about we are also wasting bus fare and time to sit in class that has no air-conditioning the Wi-fi signal sucks as well that students cannot learn online. We as the higher certificate qualification have been treated unfairly as our course is only one year long and we need the proper education which is not being provided by the assigned lecturers. However the only lecturer that has given his all and covered his whole module is Pastor Mbali he has also come and given us revision lectures. As for the ecom lecturer he has been so ridiculous as he had all the time after test 1 to teach us but not even a week before test 2 but just as few days he rushed through two chapters which is not fair and expects the students to learn all the chapters for test 2 when he didn’t finish the previous chapters properly. His excuse for not coming to class in the being was that he was so busy marking assignments which is clearly not our problem because we are paying our school fees to be taught. The other lecturers such as the system software lecturer only attended once since after test 1 but yes he gave us the slides and told us to self-study if this is the case why should we be forced to attend campus daily. The IOOP lecturer barely comes to class and his module is the hardest from the rest you cannot really self-study that you need someone to teach it as it is a new concept and like mentioned before wifi is weak in our section of the campus, so how do we self-study. Most students had trouble writing the CA test 2 offline test because proper teaching time was not given to students on how to use notepad++ as it was rushed through one week before the test week. This is clearly ridiculous Richfield is only concerned about fees but where is our parents hard earned money going to if we need to self-study on our own then our fees price should be lowered and lecturers should not be paid they are just robbing us and being unfair. Next is the disorder experienced during test 2 first venues are not enough for all students to write thus some do not write during the allocated time and must come back for rewrites which is not fair. The times are ridiculous to make us write so late in the afternoon and then must run around the campus looking for a completely different venue that is not even allocated for us to write in as the allocated venues are being used by other students for other tests during our time that we end up not starting on time or because some computers do not have internet connection which is ironic as this is a technical college. We wasted over half an hour that day looking for a venue late in the afternoon tests should be scheduled for early times when there are enough lecturers and staff available for assistance. Also the fact that marks are getting lost because of system failures is ridiculous where is the order in this college. Now for asking for help from people who are meant to assist students as it is their job behave so rudely towards students and Belinda on the 11th floor is very very mean to some students especially the females, she doesn’t know how to speak calmly to students yes we are students and we make mistakes but that does not mean she must be rude to us when we ask for help. Richfield needs to change its ways as students are not finding this college experience fair. WHAT IS RICHFIELD GOING TO DO TO CHANGE THEIR ORDER?. SOMETHING MUST BE DONE ABOUT THIS BEFORE EXAMS!!! DON’T BE UNFAIR WE ARE PAYING OUR FEES TO RECEIVE WHAT WE ARE PAYING FOR. My apologies for this review but it is the truth and we as students need to fight and speak now before it is too late. PLEASE RICHFIELD TAKE ACTION SOON.
