Running for the position of Vice President Welfare and Community, I'm Godswill Daniel, driven by the belief that our student union plays a vital role in addressing pressing concerns such as escalating living expense effects on students, academic enhancement, campus engagement, and overall student well-being. By fostering a supportive environment and bridging the gap between Talbot and Lansdowne, we can cultivate inclusivity, teamwork, and a vibrant university community.
My campaign focuses on three crucial initiatives:
Firstly, I aim to boost overall class attendance by 10% within the upcoming academic year. Recognizing the pivotal role attendance plays in academic success and well-being, I propose implementing incentive programs. By rewarding consistent attendance with redeemable points for marks, meal discounts, bookstore vouchers, or other campus services, we can enhance student motivation and participation.
Secondly, I strive to increase cross-campus participation in events and activities by 20%. Collaboration is key to overcoming campus divides and fostering a cohesive community. To achieve this, I propose organizing joint events and activities with faculties, student organizations, clubs, and societies. By hosting at least one joint event a?semester, we can create opportunities for students from both campuses to come together, enriching their university experience.
Lastly, I aim to enhance student well-being. Rising living costs pose a significant challenge to students' lifestyles and academic performance. To address this, I plan to improve existing food support programs and with support from?the university, establish a guarantee scheme for students, easing the burden of securing accommodation.
As your Vice President Welfare and Community, I am committed to realizing these initiatives and creating a more supportive, inclusive, and vibrant university community. I humbly ask for your support and vote in the upcoming elections. There is something about Bournemouth University, let's discover it. Vote Godswill Daniel.
