Election post
If re-elected as Media Rep, I will ensure the following policies are delivered. Many build on my work from last year and aim to enhance the visibility and support of student media at UCL.
- Increased funding for printing services through clear access routes for all student publications
- Masterclasses on writing successful Student Publication Award nominations
- External speaker and social events for all student media, with diverse, representative guests
- Strengthen the presence of student media on campus through expanded media drop bins in SU cafes and bars
- Media passes for arts & varsity events
I have a wealth of experience in student media at UCL. As Media Rep in 24/25, I oversaw the expansion of student media representation within SU discourse and on campus. I also created and passed the IPSO student media compliance policy, ensuring publication output remains compliant and consistent.
I also served as an Editor at The Cheese Grater for 3 years, writing on a range of topics. Last year, I oversaw the publication’s most successful run in over a decade, bringing student journalism back to the forefront of campus life through cutting-edge, student-focused (and award-winning) reporting
In short, my time at UCL has been defined by student journalism. It has been my personal highlight of university life. Indeed, beyond my experience in media-related roles, my greatest asset is the passion, care, and commitment I have for student journalism at our university. I believe student journalism is essential to a vibrant student life, and I’m committed to ensuring it remains a core part of the SU’s vision and priorities. If elected, I will ensure that no publication is left behind, and that we all can flourish in our diversity, making UCL’s student life brighter for all.
