Info

twenty-four HOUSING Certificate students are assigned a room in one of the student residences operated by a private company. Senior students find accommodation in the student residences or in private suites in town. Student residences are independent suites shared by three to six people. Men and women live in separate suites. Each suite is complete with kitchen, bathroom and laundry facilities. Bedrooms are furnished with a bed, a dresser, and a desk. Students need to bring linen, bedding, and personal effects. Telephone service is not provided. There is no cafeteria service in Rosebud. Residents share a kitchen and cook their own meals (basic cooking utensils are provided). Specific residence rules are outlined in the student life manual. During the 2011-12 school year, room rates in student residences are $1,800 per term, single occupancy. A security deposit of $300 is due with first month’s payment. Rent payment is due on September 4, registration day. There are three payment options. 1. One cheque for $750 on September 4, plus seven post-dated cheques for $450 from October 2012 to April 2013. 2. First-term rent payment of $2,100 payable on Sept. 4, 2011 and a post-dated cheque of $1,800 for January 1, 2013. 3. Full rent payment of $3,900 payable on Sept. 4, 2011. NOTE: Please pay by cash or cheque. A 2% surcharge will be applied if payment is made by credit card. HEALTH Health Services There are hospitals, day clinics (phone ahead for appointment) and pharmacies in Drumheller, Three Hills and Strathmore. The nearest hospital is located in Drumheller, 35 km. northeast of Rosebud. Medical Emergencies The student life advisor may be contacted in case of a medical emergency. Supervisors of the Mercantile Dining Room and Stage Managers have first aid certification. The 911 service is available in the Rosebud area. Transportation to Medical Appointments If a student is driven to a medical appointment by a third party, the student is expected to reimburse the driver according to RSA transportation rates ($10 Drumheller, $28 Strathmore or Three Hills, $52 Calgary). In the event that a student does not pay the driver (e.g. a medical emergency), RSA will pay the driver and invoice the student. Students outside the Province Students from other provinces and countries are encouraged to continue their provincial/national medical coverage and should be able to provide their medical insurance identification number when they visit health services. Communication The physical and mental demands of classroom and performance work should not be underestimated. Students must note on their application any special needs or limitations and give an accurate account of their medical and psychological history, so that the Rosebud staff can make appropriate accommodation. Experience has demonstrated that applicants who inform of us of their needs up-front generally experience little trouble during the school year and are successful in their studies. Applicants who try to “down-play” their condition do not fare as well. Rosebud School of the Arts expects truthful communication. You are assured that your needs will be treated with respect and confidentiality. Counseling Programme The Counselling Programme facilitates professional counselling for RCA students, staff and their families. RCA provides facilities and travel expenses for registered psychologist to come to Rosebud on a regular basis. RCA subsidizes counselling fees to a certain amount for clients not covered under a health care plan. Subsidy is available for appointments with the RCA sponsored counselor, or appointments made with a counselor of the client’s choice. Travel costs incurred by the client are not covered. RCA subsidizes $40 of the cost of a counselling session to a maximum of 6 sessions ($240) per student per academic year. ALUMNI Graduates and former staff of Rosebud School of the Arts are treasured resources and are utilized as mentors, sessional staff, guest artists, advisors to or representatives on the board of governors. We offer alumni reduced rates for our Opera House productions (an approximately 25% savings). Alumni are also welcomed on the International Theatre Trip to experience theatre and art in London or New York.
RESOURCES Resource Centre – Campus Library The resource centre containing the collection of the Anne Severns Library offers borrowing privileges to over 3500 volumes of general resource books, fiction, magazines in general arts/theatre arts, Christian literature, videos, audio tapes, reference books and a networked/Internet connected computer area. Every student who is not already a member of TAL (The Alberta Library) receives an Alberta library card through the Marigold Library System. The Marigold Library System gives students access to 151 libraries in TRAC (The Regional Automation Consortium) and over 250 libraries in TAL (The Alberta Library). Internet Services Students have access to internet connected computer stations in the Resource Centre free of charge. Student ID Cards Students are issued a photo ID card at the beginning of the fall term. These can be used at other college and university campus bookstores to receive student discounts from software vendors or receive student ticket pricing at theatres in Calgary and elsewhere. SPIRITUAL LIFE Chapel Rosebud School of the Arts is an open-faith community that welcomes people from a broad range of traditions. The School’s mission is to challenge students in the lifelong journey of integrating faith and art, and our chapel sessions are part of this commitment. Chapel takes place one hour per week and usually features one of these four themes: Worship Arts: The themes from the Christian calendar are used as a basis for readings, music, poetry, scripts, stories, etc. as an artistic expression of faith and worship. Taizé: These chapels are based upon scripture readings, songs, and quietly seeking God’s Spirit. Taizé services end in Communion. Faith Journey: Times of praise and worship that feature faith stories of staff, students, guests. Church Attendance Students are encouraged to fellowship in a local church. Using one’s talents in worship and ministry of a local church enriches both the student and the church community. The Rosebud Church, affiliated with the Evangelical Covenant Church, is a strong supporter of the school. The church offers a true community church experience with many different denominations represented in its members and plenty of opportunity for participation in worship and ministry. There are also churches affiliated with various denominations in Carbon, Drumheller, Rockyford, Standard, and Strathmore. Retreat The annual retreat takes place during a January weekend when students, staff and their families meet away from Rosebud to fellowship and explore our common history and future visions. twenty-five
