ENN1504 ASSIGNMENT 4 MINUTES OF A MEETING

QUESTION 1: MINUTES OF A MEETING BACKGROUND Mr Dube is the chairperson of the Student Support Committee at Malusi University. The Student Support Office together with the Student Representative Council (SRC) members have decided to engage the student body as well as do community work with local schools affected by drug abuse. Mr Dube called a meeting with the Student Support Officials and members of the SRC to discuss drug abuse issues at the university and how they could reach out to help students from neighbouring schools who experience drug abuse problems. INSTRUCTIONS Below is a transcript (exact words written down) of what was said under item agenda of this meeting presented in the form of a dialogue. As the secretary for the Student Support Office at Malusi university, it is your duty to take minutes during meetings. Malusi University is overwhelmed by drug abuse problems which affect student performance and enhances high dropout rate. At this point, the meeting is discussing Agenda Item 3.5: Drug abuse issues and student support. This means that the complete format for minutes is not required. Remember that in taking minutes, we carefully select and summarise information, and make changes to style and grammar. Note that you should not record what each person said in turn. You should use the linear format of minutes (in sentences and paragraphs). Your answer should not exceed ONE page in length.
