What Your Student Exec Have Been Working on This Term
Your Exec have been in their positions since this summer and have all been working hard to tackle all the things they promised they’d sort out for you.
Here’s a round up of everything they have achieved so far, and what they aim to do in the next term to make student life better for all students.
Your Student Exec support a People’s Vote
Last week we held a campus-wide vote on “Should LUU support a People’s Vote on the final Brexit deal”. Over 1100 students took part, of which nearly 80% voted to support the motion.
NUS Elections Results
After weeks of campaigning and a great voter turnout, we can now announce who will be representing LUU at the 2019 NUS Conferences.
Referenda Results
Results are in for the campus-wide referenda on the following ideas that did not pass at our Better Union Forum. We wanted to know if LUU should support a People’s Vote on Brexit and whether LUU should provide the same support for radio and television as it does for print media.
Essentials to Become Co-op
Plans are developing to transform Essentials, your union supermarket, into a Co-op, providing you with more choice of products, cheaper options and a speedier shopping experience.
Give Your Ears A Rest
You can pick up a free pair of ear plugs from behind the bars at LUU when you’re on a night out. It only takes fifteen minutes for loud music to damage your ears so grab a pair and give your ears a rest.
LUU Draws the Line of Hate Crime and Harassment
Our zero tolerance to hate crime and harassment on campus campaign has engaged almost 6,000 students and 150 staff members on campus to empower them to draw the line on hate crime.
Tell Us About PG Life to Win Prizes
If you’re a postgraduate student at the University of Leeds then you’re in with a chance to win some prizes.
LUU want to know a bit more about postgraduate life at Leeds so we’ve set up a quick five minute survey for you to fill out. Once you submit your answers, you’ll be in with a chance to win £50 worth of Amazon vouchers to spend.
We’ll use your answers to inform policy and make change, so this is another chance to have your say and tell us about what PG life is like.
Sound good? Here’s the survey
Making a Better Union
Last week LUU held our Better Forums - a chance for all of our members to put forward ideas that improve how we do things here at the Union, at the University and in the city of Leeds.
