Election post
For years, I have seen decisions affecting students be made without adequate representation and thus consideration of our needs. In college, I was a prefect. As an avid protestor, I took direct action on behalf of students, gaining 200+ signatures on a petition that I took to the Headteacher. I am passionate about representation and unafraid to take initiative. This summer, I led young adults as a volunteer camp facilitator, and now as a transition mentor, I am guiding less experienced 1st years. I will openly listen and connect with my fellow students to make our voices heard, so vote for me!
If elected, I will work to achieve the following (in order of priority):
- Students get consistent communication and support from personal tutors
- We are listened to if professors do not communicate or teach effectively
- DAP glitches are dealt with, particularly for SoRA students
- More exam preparation resources e.g answers to practice papers!
By discussing my 1st year experience with others, these are the main issues that come to light. I believe these are feasible goals that will enhance our academic experience! I aim to communicate with you, adapt and act accordingly as new issues arise.
Ultimately, I will represent those of us who have sent 10 emails to a personal tutor in vain, received a lower grade due to system glitches, or needed subtitled videos - and even those who want to connect with their fellow students in the department more!
I am an experienced and enthusiastic communicator and will take your issues seriously. I've really enjoyed getting to know everyone so far, and will ensure even the quietest of us are heard with feedback forms, surveys and an open ear! I am passionate about change and will make the most of my role, by making sure you get the most out of it.
