            <description><![CDATA[<p>Hello... I guess now its official I should announce myself.</p><p>As I am currently the *only* 1st&nbsp;year&nbsp;rep for Computer Science, come to me with your course related praises, criticisms and comments. This is for straight CS degrees or degrees that are joint CS degrees. Details of the Computer Science SSLC (Staff-Student Liason Committee) can be found <a href="http://www.rdg.ac.uk/AcaDepts/si/sslc/"  target="_blank">here</a>&nbsp;along with the minutes of the first meeting of the term (held on 1/11/2006).</p><p>You&#39;ll see that I have already raised some issues that have been affecting us. My email is <a href="mailto:siu05dft@rdg.ac.uk">siu05dft@rdg.ac.uk</a>, get in touch with anything else you want brought up!</p><p>Also, this is a request for volunteers to fill the 1st year rep positions for CS/Cyb and CS/EE so that Part 1 student don&#39;t all have to rely on just me and also so that your course-specific comments can go to someone who&#39;s on your course (I&#39;m doing plain CS). Might I also point out that being a course rep will look good on your CV, particularly given that you can get <a href="http://www.rusu.co.uk/DisplayPage.asp?PageId=9829"  target="_blank">MASIV</a> accredition for it and have it appear on your degree transcript for employers to see. e.g. I got it last year for writing for Spark (<em>Technical &amp; Media Community Services</em>). Being a course rep means you could be eligible for &quot;<em>Student Committee &amp; Representation Groups</em>&quot; MASIV accreditation.</p>]]></description>
