Returning Students’ Union (SU) Faculty of Science representative Chaten Jessel has been working hard this past year, creating community initiatives in support of undergraduate students at the University of Calgary.
Three of these projects were in collaboration with other SU representatives from the 2019–20 school year Manpreet Sahota and Pragya Chopra and will carry on into Jessel’s second term as faculty rep. These projects include the Earth Science (ES) 160 study space renovation, the Inclusion, Diversity and Equity (IDEA) Awards and the Open Education Resource Fund (OERF).
The $35,460.22 ES160 renovation will provide students with 25 new study carrels with access to outlets and a study lamp. Along with other space improvements like white boards and new paint, this initiative hopes to reduce the severe lack of study spaces on campus and will allow all students to effectively complete their academic work when it is deemed safe to return to campus.
