WHAT THE EXEC?!

☞ SPEAK WEEK- HAVE YOUR SAY! MON 12TH - 16TH NOV ☞ ONE WORLD ONE PLANET WEEK - MON 19TH - 23RD NOV

Thank you to all of you who voted in the Part Time Officer Exec elections - meet your brand new exec committee. (Right)

Part Time Exec officers are just that - they are BU students that now work with SUBU alongside their studies. They have weekly meetings with the four full time officers (Louise, Murray, Ruby and Sophie) to decide upon the direction that SUBU should take, what campaigns we should run, or what student issues need attention.

They are the eyes and ears of the 18,000 of you guys we have here at BU. Its SUBU’s job to make sure you are all represented and the Part Time Exec Officers will be working to make sure we do so!

The roles reflect the different groups of students we have here at BU, so that everyone’s views and opinions are represented. This year, that includes two brand new roles.

You voted, now meet the 16 students who will be helping run your Students’ Union!

NUS DEMO 2012

The NUS national demo is called ‘#demo2012: Educate, Employ, Empower’. It will take place on Wednesday 21st November, and will involve a march through central London.

SUBU will be providing coaches to and from the demo, leaving from Talbot Campus at 8.30am. SUBU President Louise Bryant says: “We felt it was important to act in response to how our students really felt about Demo 2012. After consulting

NOV 2012

President Louise Bryant explains why:

“We’ve added new roles this year after recognising the struggles of some key under-represented groups. Our two new roles – Student Parents Officer and HSc Officer – were created to ensure that we hear from these students and provide them with as great a University experience as the rest of the student body.”

Expect to hear lots from them soon and get in touch if you have any suggestions, issues, or ideas!

Mon 26th – Fri 30th November be careful walking around campus because you may find yourself part of a performance or building a giant gingerbread house….

This is all because of BUnique week. It’s about showcasing the very best of our clubs and societies and how they can really make you stand out to employers, so look out for the programme of events coming soon. If you want to be involved with the week or just help out, contact Jen below.

Remember, if you want to get a club or society started, you only need 4 mates and we will get you going.

New societies this month: Kazakhstan Society, European Society, Handball Club and a Wine Appreciation Society (Will most certainly be attending this one - its all, erm, research!)

Water is something we all take for granted, and it’s likely that when you buy a bottle from the Student Shop, you

don’t think about the brand. So next time you browse the refrigerator, look at the bottom shelf and pick up One Water. One Water is priced 15p lower than Evian and Volvic, (which deliberately cost a little more to subsidise One Water.) 100%

of their profits go towards funding water wells in Africa, so that means that every time you spend 45p on what you just think is an ordinary bottle of water, you’re helping someone

in the developing world get access to fresh, clean water.

Good deed of the day = accomplished!

Speak Week (12th – 16th Nov) is the time for student reps chance to show off everything they do!Student Reps are the mouthpiece for all student issues – do you know who yours is? Ask your course tutor if not.

It’s also your chance to have your say on matters that affect your education both locally and nationally.

Issues highlighted during the week will include: Hidden course costs, principles of good feedback, and unpaid placements.

We will be asking you to have your say on all of these issues, so make sure you get involved with our interactive booths, and fill in the SOS (Student Opinion Survey) in the atrium all week.
