► Repesentation Sabbatical
Martin Dodd
'Welcome to the University of Cumbria Students’ Union, whether as a under-grad, post grad, flex-mod, part-time, full-time, mature or international student, you have joined us at an exciting time and in a year of important and exciting transition.
My name is Martin Dodd and I am the Representation Sabbatical for 2010/11 having graduated from the university in July and as an active member of the students’ union for the past three years it is my job along with the three other Sabbaticals to ensure that UCSU effectively represents YOU. As the lead Sabbatical it is my overall responsibility for the your representation as well as all other University of Cumbria students, whether through our own structures and mechanisms or those of the university. This could be through our course reps scheme or advice service, by campaigning on issues which matter to you or providing activity and volunteering opportunities, UCSU is an organisation by students, for students and in which I hope you will get involved.
As already highlighted UCSU is currently in the middle of numerous changes as a union to ensure we effectively represent you. Over the summer we have seen both a change in our democratic and staff structure which will change how we operate for you. Our aim is to focus all we do around four key areas of Representation, Academic, Union Community and Student Life, an ambitious shift which presents a number of significant changes, potential challenges and massive opportunities.
I believe there may be testing times ahead whether related to the long-term stability and sustainability of the university or the national debate on student funding, but it is you who ultimately decides our priorities and it is my promise to ensure these stay paramount in how UCSU operates over the next year. I therefore hope whether as a new or continuing student you will continue to raise issues, get involved and question YOUR UNION!
Always remember that myself, the three other sabbaticals and our other elected officials are here to listen to your concerns, so feel free to stop us and have a chat when you see us out and about. We want to know what matters to you – as that’s what matter to us. '
