Hey Everyone! Welcome to UL, I’m sure you are looking forward to 4 very memorable years here in

college.

My name is Jack Shelly and I am delighted to have been elected as your Students Union president for

the upcoming year. I am your primary representative on a local and national level. I sit on a crazy

amount of committee’s to make sure the students of UL are always being considered with any

decisions being made. I work with a fantastic team here in the SU to make sure everything is being

done so that you get the best experience possible with your time in UL. We organise big events such

as fresher’s week and RAG week which I’m sure you have all heard of.

I work alongside you welfare officer, Roberta and you academic officer Conor on all things student-related

. If you need advice or info on anything, big or small, don’t hesitate to contact us. Just call

into the SU or send us an email. We will do our very best to make sure you are looked after and that

whatever problem or query you had is sorted.

I would encourage everyone coming into UL to get involved as much as you possibly can, join a club

or society or two, go to the stables for a few pints, make use of all the pitches, the swimming pool

and the walk way down by the river. UL is a community with a serious campus and even better

people so don’t hold back, embrace the whole experience of being a college student. You won’t be

here forever so you want to leave here with as many memories and friends as you possibly can.

As a student, you have a voice, and sometimes people don’t realise that. If you have an idea or

suggestion for ways to improve the student experience here in UL let me know and I will listen.

In the words of Gandhi, “be the change we wish to see in this world”.
