It is my distinct pleasure, as the Publications Committee Chairman of the Guild of Students 2013-2014 to welcome you; our new students to the University of the West Indies, Cave Hill Campus. This publication, titled “The Signpost” is your Freshers’ Guide and was made with the single purpose of helping you find and understand what the campus has to offer you, as you make this crucial step in your life.
The first section of this publication is aimed at educating you as to what the Guild of Students is and the mul-tiple ways in which we interact and can help you, our constituents. Following on from this, is the “On Campus” section, which will give you the chance to see what services and activities are available at Cave Hill. Finally, paired with this magazine, is a Barbados hand book which will help you learn and find your way around the country of Barbados.
The Publications committee this year is seeking not only to keep you the student updated on all university happenings, as a result, we are opening our ranks to those with the passion or skill for writing, web or graphic designing, journalism, reporting or even photography. Those who are interested can contact the Publications Committee, through me at [email protected] for more information.
Believe me when I say that this campus, though a part of the regional university, UWI, has had an international impact which struggles for measure. This year the Cave Hill Campus is celebrating its 50th year anniversary with the theme “Path To Prosperity”. This prosperity has been produced by the students who have walked these hallowed halls, sat in the classroom and spent hours in the library, diligently working hard and socially interacting and networking with their fellow regional counterparts, much like you will. You, the Fresher Group of 2013-2014, will be tasked with continuing the tradition of illuminating your minds and becoming a part of the light, shining from the West. No matter where you are from, you have arrived at this institution with a purpose; A purpose of excellence!
As you find your footing and calling in life at this University, I hope that all of you enjoy the times to come, persevere during the hard times and work, and when the time comes, leave this University with the understanding that the “Path To Prosperity” is one that you are now well and truly on. I hope that many of you find yourself seated where I and my colleagues are as members of the Guild Council in the next years, with a passion for student representation, a thirst for the wealth of experience and longing to be a part of an institution with a history of integrity such as the UWI Cave Hill Guild of Students. Everything you will need has been given to you; good luck, and make the most of it!
Alex DownesPublications Committee Chairman 2013-2014

Message From ThePublications Committee Chairman
to
Welcome, The time has come and here you are!. On behalf of the Guild of Students, I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to the University of the West Indies, Cave Hill Cam-pus. Your entrance into U.W.I. Cave Hill could not have come at a more magnificent time as your entrance coincides with the 50th Anniversary celebrations of the Cave Hill Campus.In this its 50th Anniversary, the University of the West Indies, Cave Hill Campus, it is worthwhile to note that the Campus continues to provide an avenue for development and the creation of knowledge which has therefore made this region a provider of global intellectuals. The University of the West Indies has also been a model of regional integration for the people and subsequently institu-tions within the region, to develop significantly to better cater to the needs of students and faculty alike.
You, are now students of the Cave Hill Campus and as students you are no doubt ready to get straight to work but I ask that as you undertake your individual studies, whether you are undertaking Business, Medical, Computer, Governmental Studies or any of the hundreds of courses on offer. I ask you to embark on the path to prosperity and hold T.I.M.E in your thoughts. Embarking on this path not just as a student but as a future graduate and a citizen of this region and of the world, will yield tremendous benefits both personally and academically. You could look towards integration and think of ways in which you could improve it, follow in the footsteps of regional intellectuals and icons, intellectuals such as Dr. Eric Williams from Trinidad & Tobago or Sir Arthur Lewis from St. Lucia and Icons like Dr. Anthony “Gabby” Carter in whose footsteps you can follow and commit yourselves to making the lives of Caribbean people better.
I wish that as you are on the path to prosperity, that you acquire the habit of maintaining excellence.This is extremely necessary as you will need to excel in all areas to be able to reach your full potential.In large you have a responsibility to those individuals whom you will come into contact.This path leads upwards and as you are now a part of this Glorious Light Rising In The Westknown as the University of the West Indies, you should never stop progressing, continue to moveforward and at every level be driven Towards Integration and Maintaining Excellence (T.I.M.E.) and besteadfast on your journey on the path towards prosperity. I ask you to know that in time you will proveyourselves, not just to your family or to this University but to this region and its people who will looktowards you in return as a new found hope that things will get better.
Once again, let me welcome you to the University of the West Indies, Cave Hill Campus. This is truly a fantastic T.I.M.E to be Cave Hill students and thus future graduates and your time here will be a most fun, exciting and educating time. Your future resides in your hands, you are well on the path to prosperity.

The Student’s Union is the place that students come to relax during their breaks or after classes. Affectionately
referred to as “De Guild”, this building serves in a dual purpose role. In the down-stairs section, you can watch your sports games on one of the multiple televisions or grab a drink from the Guild Bar. Meet new people or just catch up with friends while playing dominoes or shooting a game of pool. If you’re hungry, then don’t worry, the
Student’s Union is home to several food vendors. Not only this, but every week, the Student’s Union features the ever popu-lar “Union Social”, feted which are held by either the clubs or societies on campus, or the faculty associations. This is your space!
In the upstairs section of the Students Union, are the Guild offices. The first two offices you will en-counter, belong to the Office Manager, Ms. Cheryl Senhouse and the Administrative Secretary, Ms. Margareet Thompson. Also in this general area, are the Publications Office, and the Guild Library. The office of the Guild President and Vice-President are also located in the upstairs section of the Student’s Union. The Guild Conference Room and the Recre-ational Balcony are also available for student usage
and/or meetings, but please note, that these areas must be booked in advanced by requesting permis-sion for its usage from the Union Committee Chair-man. Always feel free to come by and speak to any Guild Councillor you may bump into!

HALLS OF RESIDENCE
FRANK WORRELL HALL is named after West Indian cricketing icon Sir Frank Worrell. This hall sits on the hill overlook-ing the 3W’s oval and is in honour of Sir Frank and his fellow Barbadian cricketing knights Sir Clyde Walcott and Sir Everton Weekes. The newer of the two halls of residence on campus, “Frank”, as it is commonly called is laid out in several blocks of three storey penthouse styled accommodation, with a capacity for
approximately 200 students. Halls of
residenceSherlock Hall, aptly named after the Jamai- can born poet and Caribbean scholar Sir Phil-lip Sherlock, is the first hall of residence at the Cave Hill Campus. It is commonly referred to as “Sherlock” and this year celebrates its forti- eth year of existence. Located to the left of The Student’s Union and the Cafeteria, “Sherlock” houses approximately 100 students, each one of which con-siders themselves lucky to be at Cave Hill, but blessed to be on Sherlock. Each resident now must take up the challenge of passing on the mantle of the will of Sir Philip Sherlock, as they develop their intellects and improve relationships with our brothers and sisters; in this Diaspora we call the Caribbean. Not alone but together as a family. No you, no me but we.
The Pharmacy is situated next to the clinic, and is where you can go to either purchase pharmaceuticals, or to fill your prescription as issued by the student
clinic. The pharmacy is open Mondays- Fridays 9am - 9pm.
