Candidate for the position of City Campus Officer (Bower, Arnolfini, Spike & Watershed)
#GearUpForGiermak
Hello, my name is Dawid Giermak and I am a 2nd Year Graphic Design student based a the Arnolfini. From the moment I started university I felt that as a City Campus students we have been placed in the position where a minority of links are being made between us and the main campus Frenchay. This includes but is not limited to; Events, Information, Opportunities and Support. Since the last academic year I worked at The Students' Union as a Graphic Designer designing many of the freshers event posters, social media graphics etc. and was part of a high number of student interactions as the new academic year begun. This position also allowed me to have an insight of how we as City Centre students are portrayed and how the some of the campuses in the city centre are often just forgotten about - for me this was one major issue, of the many that I wanted to change for the better and standing for the City Campus Officer will allow me to do so. This is an opportunity for me as a student to relate to other students about their concerns regarding their place of study, a figurehead that will strive and commit to any small, big or ambitious suggestions from students about how their experience at university can be improved - this is for you, by a student for students. Make it count, take the initiative and vote.
I begin with set goals like such:
- Creating a strong, stable and sufficient link with all the City Campuses
- Organising events in the City Campuses that will be widely advertised to ensure the biggest reach and turnout
- Discussing with students about any lack of equipment or facilities they notice within their course and making sure these insufficiencies are dealt with immediately
- Creating a strong image of of City Campus students that I will carry to any meetings and events
But these are only the beginning goals, I am here for you, not myself - as more students come to me, I can aim to help them and set more goals.
Thank You
