Keeping up with SRUCSA March 2022
Wow! March was much more busy than we expected. It absolutely flew by. It felt like our feet did not touch the floor. The big highlight was the SRUCSA Elections. The most important event in our calendar. This year we had several big successes – More nominees than ever before, five nominees for a one position and the second the greatest number of students ever taking part in voting. The number one turnout position is still the year the merger colleges combined to form SRUCSA. So, our student body successfully chose their leaders for the 22/23 year, and we are excited to work with Claire, Liam, and Roz.

Today is International Day of Persons with Disabilities, which this year has the theme ‘Not All Disabilities Are Visible’. As the Students with Disabilities officer, I thought I would share my experiences of being disabled in an ableist world.
The Week after SRUCSA Speak Week 2021
eek was Speak Week! We asked every SRUC student just two questions – “what do you love about SRUC?”, and “if you were in charge, what would you change?” – and allow them to answer in whatever way they feel is right.

Keeping up with SRUCSA September 2021
September is when it all happens – we get to welcome back returning students and show the newbies what it is all about. We kept up to date with the EIS/SRUC dispute SRUCSA has an ongoing training plan for this year, so we had lots of that too.
