MY PROMISES/PLEDGES TO STUDENTS
All elected Officers create a number of Promises that they make to students. Their reports to Student Forum are based on these promises.
PROMISE 1: BUDGET FOR EVENTS
As your Events and Activities officer, I pledge to push to lobby the Student Union to provide a budget for events this year to give me the best chance to put on the best events for you.
PROMISE 2: COMMUNITY WITHIN EVENTS
I promise to listen to your opinions and wishes about the events you would like to see and participate in, allowing me to increase our sense of community and reach a wider variety of Newman Students. I hope and plan to provide at least one event a month that can increase solidarity around campus and make sure everyone becomes a part of our Newman community.
