What will you bring to this role (e.g. experience, skills or qualities)?

    • ERGO I WAS THE ONLY NON UNION PERSON THAT WENT BECAUSE THEY ACTUALLY CARED
    • sorry for caps
  • ...But now I'm Societies rep!

Skills

  • I'm good at forcing change

  • I'm good at getting to the heart of an issue - I dont entertain crap.

Qualities

  • I have no shame and therefore have n0 qualms with asking difficult questions
  • I'm extremely critical, yet have no issue changing my mind
  • I'm very persistent
What do you hope to achieve in the role if you are elected?
  1. I have proposed a policy to restructure SocietiesUCL in a way that would better benefit general interests societies. It is going to be discussed at the next meeting!
  2. We need actual University-wide social events on the Yearly calendar. A few ideas I have are:
    1. Intra department competition - e.g Sciences Quiz - IN progress
    2. UCL Matchmaking - Stay tuned
    3. General Interests Fair - next year
  3. Grants for society collaborations
  4. Create a system for easier inter-university society event hosting
  5. Push for better society storage (Archery range is ick)

I will achieve actual change.

Please summarise why students should vote for you.

Im applying for this role because I'm old, and bitter, and in my final year.  I truly care about societies at UCL, and want students to have what I did not - a student community. I'm not doing this for my CV; I have a job that I'm hopefully going to do after I graduate, which has NOTHING to do with this.

I'm sick and tired of nothing changing. I'm tired of the fact that general interest societies are disrespected, depsite making up the vast majority of societies in Societies UCL. 

I'm EXTREMELY passionate about this.

( I also won the last election by 200 votes but they decided to redo it so...)
