Student Life in RUN

Student Life in RUN


Student life can be exciting with the prospect for gaining a lifelong and an enriching experience. There are several social and professional students’ clubs.

 

While the temporary site has minimal facilities of sports and recreation, we have gone to lengths in preparing a master plan with facilities  for  sports,  recreation,  community  involvement  and engagement.

 

The Students’ Association
Redeemer’s University Students’ Association (RUNSA) is the membership organization of all students at the Redeemer's University. The Association is a platform for good communication among the University authorities, the University community and the entire student body in an atmosphere devoid of rancour and bickering.   It is a young association that was inaugurated in 2006 as a wide student forum for expression and exchange of students' views and opinions.  Since it was formed, students' representation and student-led activities have grown.

The  Association  is  concerned  about  issues  affecting students  especially  those relating  to  their  welfare.    It consists of an elected executive
and legislative council.    Apart from its main body, there are other academic associations and social clubs which activities are co-ordinated  by  the  main students' body.


S p o r t
Currently, at the take-off site of the  University ,  sporting facilities for football, volleyball and basketball etc. are available. RUN encourages  active  participation  in sports and recreation as the University engages  in  annual  intercollegiate sporting  competitions,  especially,  in Football and Athletics. A comprehensive sporting complex will be developed at the permanent site.


Arts and Music on Campus
The RUN Troupe is the Repertory Theatre of the Redeemer's University established for the sole purpose of staging constant theatrical  performances  within  the  University.  Membership  cuts across the entire University and its environs. There are opportunities to explore and display talents in acting, dancing, singing, playwriting, directing, costuming among others.

The Troupe, managed by the Theatre Arts department has produced plays, musical and dance productions with global themes and what better channel to discover your innate talent than to join the RUN Troupe where prior skill in these areas is not a criterion!
 

There are all year round activities to which staff and students are invited to participate. These activities include: plays, Easter Cantata and Christmas Carol etc. The Arts Theatre is equipped with facilities including:  a  Dance  Studio  conducive  for  the  development  of kinesiology, a suitable Music Studio, an ICT enabled Media Studio and a modest Arts Theatre.

Rehearsing  and  performing  in  RUN  cannot  be  anything  but worthwhile.
