So it is that time of year again. The Student’s Union elections. Possibly one of the most important weeks for the university students as it allows us to listen to everyone’s ideas, read their manifestos, take part in their campaigns and most important vote for the candidate we believe is most suitable for the position. Also it is so easy to vote this year all you do is log in online and cast your vote…. very simple!

The most important posts are President, Vice President ( Faculty of Education, Faculty of Health and Faculty of Arts and Sciences). If I listed the rest of the posts I would be here a while! Anyway there is a competition in all 4 of these categories and everyone has had to up their game for the last couple of days. For example the whole campus is full of posters in support of various candidates. Also the other day one of the people running was giving out free cakes for anyone who asked how he could help them! Today I was in uni and one of the candidates was singing with a guitar in the Hub (doing a very good job too!) So this week has been hectic for everyone involved. Voting shuts on the 14th and after that it won’t be long till we find out who will be representing the Students Union when you all arrive in September!
