University Student Etiquette

 

Don’t be seen as the rude student who thinks of themselves as above everyone else. Here are some tips for some common student etiquette:

Don’t

-          make a habit of arriving to tutorials or lectures late -

           besides being rude, the lecturer will know you for the wrong reasons

-          put your feet up on the seat in front of you – especially if someone is sitting there

-          make out you know more than the lecturer – no one likes a ‘know it all’

-          be too critical of another’s work especially if you haven’t done any yourself 

-          be the loafer when working on the group assignment – this is a quick way to lose friends

-          put negative comments about lecturers or fellow students on your online social network            page- anyone can access the internet and it will only reflect negatively on you

-          ignore people – network and you will probably learn a thing or two

-          forget who will be marking your assignment – ask questions and if you get a grade you     are  unhappy about – approach the marker sensibly and preferably after you have had a day to think about it.

-          write on the online Uni forum anything you may regret  as it is not easily deleted

University is a fun time of learning. Don’t let poor student etiquette get in the way of making new friends, learning and generally enjoying University life.
