INTRODUCTION:
Hi! My name is Mila Tabone, and I am running for Orkney Depute President. ⸂⸂⸜(രᴗര๑)⸝⸃⸃
For some context, I am a BSc Archaeology student, currently in my second year, here at UHI Orkney. I have really enjoyed the experience of representing you this academic year and so am running for a second time because I would like the opportunity to do so again in the next one.
WHY I THINK I AM A GOOD CANDIDATE:
As mentioned, I have the experience of being a HISA student officer, but I also have previous experience in representing fellow students as class representative for three years and student representative at the board of my previous school.
As an International student, I am very aware that Uni and College can be experienced very differently by everyone. And so I strive in being as inclusive as possible in any work I do.
KEY CAMPAIGN POINTS:
If I get elected, I will campaign on the following things:
- I will maintain my initiative of the Pebble box. I have been told by several students that they really enjoy the weekly questions, and it is a great way of getting to know all of you!
- I will keep organising small events around crafting, as it brings students together for small moments of breathing space, which is important in academic settings! I would also want to see If those could be expanded to a few online events as well, for further student inclusivity.
- I will do my best to listen to you, and what you think is important. As student officer, the most important thing is listening to the student voice and help out to the best of my ability.
CLOSING STATEMENT:
Please consider voting for me, between Monday 10th March and Thursday 13th March!
If you have any questions, do contact me at 23001515@uhi.ac.uk
Kind regards,
Mila :D
