First Blog!

Hiya, my first blog on this new system we have decided to start. Firstly, my name is Dan Yeandle, Vice-President of Education & Representation of the Students Union. I will be in office til 1st July 2009, so ill be here for the whole academic year.

There have been some issues which have been put too me and there is really no current system of getting this information back to you, so i thought i would just put it to you on here temporarily.

Cash Machines - Some students have complained about the lack of this, according to the University this is being delt with and we will see some movement within the next few weeks.

Parking - This is a big issue for the Students Union as well as the University. We have been bringing up this issue at the correct committees and boards, and again, this is a work in progress. We have not forgotten your issues.

Bar Food - A number of students have asked me about the change in the menu in comparison to last years. Unfortunatly, it is not as simple as just putting more food on the menu. Again, discussions are ongoing.

I know this blog appears to be just telling you of discussions I have been having, but it is important that you understand the processes at University of making changes.

I would also like draw your attention to a new object in Eagle 365, the Chalkboard. This has been set up as an informal way of recieving feedback from you students about certain issues which are being discussed within the Students Union. Currently, I have asked Students to discuss Carnage UK. Please feel free to write up questions/queries.
