Elected
What will you bring to this role (e.g. experience, skills or qualities)?
Kerem has previously held posts at the Student Union, MUN and other student-led bodies where he strived towards unique goals with teamwork and determination. Representing student voices, handling large budgets, and organising conferences have developed his skills in administrative leadership, representation, and negotiation, which are crucial in enacting change within the faculty.
On the other hand, Greg has experience in website management, and online feedback collection and communication, which will be essential to making sure every student’s voice is heard, considered, and responded to.
What do you hope to achieve in the role if you are elected?
Our main goal is to create a straightforward, centralised way for students to share their thoughts, suggestions, and concerns with the faculty. It may be as simple as a Google form.
With Kerem's negotiation expertise, we will use your feedback to push for faculty reform and take action ourselves where possible - change doesn’t happen in a meeting room, it happens beyond it.
Finally, we will establish a system for communicating our progress with you - once or twice each term, expect an email newsletter with your feedback, the faculty’s response, and the resulting changes we should expect.
Please summarise why students should vote for you.
In our experience, student reps get elected and then disappear into the void, never to be heard from again. That makes you wonder - what does a student rep do anyways? Do they even do anything at all?
We want to change that. By implementing a system of communication between the student body and life sciences reps, you will no longer be left in the dark regarding the work we do and the changes we push for. We hope to set a new precedent for what communicating with the Faculty of Life Sciences should look like.
To do that, we need your support.
To do that, we need your vote!
