Class Matters
An update

Jonthan has been informed by the Operations Manager of the school that works in the class will be undergoing soon. This is after several members of the class have submitted a modest proposal to the school admin.

Solved Problems

So far, the following problems in class has been rectified by the school administration:

1) Internet Cable
Solution provided by the school administration: 2 more internet cables has been asked for, and are thus provided for the usage of our class, T21.
As such, there are a total of 3 internet cables in class.
Of the 3 internet cables,
1 is stuck permanently into the internet port nearest to where Jolene's table is.
Suggested precaution: Do not touch that internet cable as the outer wire coating has started to wear down and the head of the internet cable stuck into the internet port is fully exposed.

Despite this, our class computer still has no/limited internet connection.
A possible reason is discussed further below.

2) Hindges of the doors of the class
Solution provided by the school administration: On Thursday, a few people from the maintanence department has fixed this problem during the break just before electives. If you observe that this problem continues to persist, inform Jonathan or Gaille a.s.a.p

3) Missing dustbin
Solution provided by the school administration: On Thursday afternoon after school, a new dustbin from the maintainence department has been provided. This dustbin.

Current Problems

However, the remaining problems belowmentioned still persists. As such, as far as possible, try not to come into contact with any of the following for the time being:
Remaining problems that will be handled by the school management from now till the end of term -

1) The Front Fan - Produces a squeaky noise. This problem has been reported.
2) Back of the class wall - Vandalism. The proposal requested for a new paintover for the back of the class, to be provided by the school management.
3) Computer [Disc changer] - This problem has been reported.
4) Left Speaker - Apparently, no sound comes out. This problem has been reported.
5) Air Con - One of the aircons is spoilt while the other is not functioning properly. This problem has been reported and a degree of priority has been given to it.

New problems

1) Internet Connection
The entire T21 classroom does not have any internet connection at all.
This is due to the failure of the internet ports [and not because of the internet cable]
This problem can be reported either to the school administration or the IT Department
There are currently 10 internet ports in class.
Once internet connection has been restored, you would be able to use the internet ports and connect it to your own laptops in class.

2) New Whiteboard
Currently, the movable whiteboard in class has it's legs spoilt. As such, we'd need to report to the school administration regarding this new problem.
