Philippe Greiner

Hey everyone, you’re probably ask yourself two questions right now: who am I and why would I be a good president, let me explain.

Who am I?
If you joined the German Society this year you probably haven’t met me yet, that’s because I’m currently studying abroad at Cornell in the US. But don’t worry, I will be back for my final year at UCL.
During my two years at UCL, I was an active member of the German Society, where I took on the Treasurer role. After handing over the role last year, I’ve stayed involved as the society’s “expat ambassador” (unofficial title, but very real commitment).
While in the US, my duties include:
- Hype up people for the upcoming world cup
- Maintain a friendly rivalry with the Brazilians in my group project over the football match in 2014.
- Putting up the “Nett hier” stickers across five states

How am I qualified?
Over my two years in the German Society, I am most proud to have sucessfully created a community with other German societies at Oxford, Cambridge, LSE, Imperial and King’s. I helped organise the first Carnival event, which has established itself as a yearly event over the last two years.

My promise to you?
I would to love to run for President to build on what I started: to keep the society fun, welcoming, and build a strong connection with other German societies in the UK. I love to organise fun events, where you can meet new people and enjoy a bit of German culture.
