Who am I:
I’m a law graduate who used to be a student like you at Newman and I really did value my time at Newman, but I do remember how lost and lonely it can feel at university especially when you first arrive. I believe that making the most out of every opportunity is the best way to live life whether that be going to events, meeting new people or trying to learn something new each day. By doing this people can feel supported and find a direction in life. This is why I became President to offer you my support and give you the opportunities you want. The other thing you should know about me is that Chinese chicken curry with egg fried rice, chips and an apple juice is my favourite meal. I even make it myself.
What is my role:
I’m here to support you by ensuring your voice is heard on campus. If you ever want to talk about any issues you have, ideas for events, vent about what’s happening or just want to have a chat in general then you can just pop in to see me at the Student Union. I always say that you get out what you put into university so you should make sure to talk to me if there’s anything you want to do at university that we don’t already do.
My pledges:
-
Ensure student council papers are published on the Student Union website to increase transparency with the student body and ensure students get a better idea of what their elected representatives are up to.
-
Increase the availability of support so that late night students and placement students can access support services.
-
Expanding the hardship fund to help with hidden university costs such as transport, placement and resources.
-
Create a dedicated site for students to get participants easier from among the student body to ease the burdens of dissertation research.
-
Continuing partnerships with external organisations to ensure student voices remain heard beyond university.
-
Widen the demographic of students accessing the Student Union.
