Hi everyone! I’m Andrea and I’ve been part of our glorious paper and most specifically investigations for about two years now. During this time, I had the opportunity to work on a few cases, with sometimes a relative success but always with determination. But it is the very rarity of that “success” (the adrenalin rush from not being stood up for an interview, the sheer joy of finally doing a good transcript…) which makes me ask you today to elect me investigation editor.

The Cheese Grace is essential to protect UCL’s democratic structure. I thus wish to continue representing the students’ but also the teachers’ and uni staff’s voices by investigating any anomaly and injustice, and covering protests on campus. This is done with our usual in-depth articles but should also in some cases start with immediate reactions through Instagram informative posts (such as our beloved soc bitch’s recent emergency release). Likewise, I want to push our investigations deeper, be daring and keep putting pressure exactly where it hurts for UCL and the SU.

A firm believer in group debates, I would promote discussions to decide together what’s best for the different investigation and writing steps. Also, sending drafts should not be the end of a writer’s commitment: editing is a constructive debate, not a unilateral rewriting.

Our amazing pieces ought to be read even more! We should therefore carry on advertising them on social media but also physically on campus, hopefully with printed copies.

Next year will be more
