Investigating the Spring Elections 2021 Investigating the Spring Elections 2021
This year has been very different for everyone, and this student election season has also seen a change. Many of the Sabb roles had a handful of candidates, much more than previous years. Furthermore, there were two student-wide Spring Elections, although both not equally advertised.
In 2020, 2,145 students voted in the Spring elections, electing both sabbatical roles and student officers. This year, SUSU decided to split sabbatical roles and student leader roles into two different elections, to encourage more people to take part in the sabbatical elections, whether as candidates or electors. In the 2021 elections, Sabbatical roles received votes from 2,415 students. The Student Leader elections as a whole received just 113 votes.
VP Activities Candidate Interview with Ella Foxhall
Why have you decided to run for the role of VP Activities?
I have seen at first-hand how hard this year has been on societies and we have had to adapt and change everything that we do. I know as VP Activities I can guide societies into a hopefully brighter future and make their ideas a reality. Societies are an essential part of university life, especially for new students to make friends. I would therefore like to make them as accessible as I can. I am a sociable, enthusiastic, and committed person and I know I can make the coming year, no matter how restricted, as fun as it can be. I also feel that through the past three years – and at this point in my life – I have experienced and grown through most of the highs and lows that university life can provide. There is scope to bring additional kinds of energy to the Activities portfolio (more on that below).
