About Us Events Help & Information Get Involved Talk to us
Congratulations are due to everyone who represented and supported #TeamWarwick in Varsity 2018 over the weekend – we’re pleased to announce that we brought the trophy home for the 29th consecutive year!
This week sees the return of the Spring Elections – this is YOUR chance to vote for the people who’ll be in charge of your Students’ Union next year. Traditionally, postgraduates have been underrepresented in the SU, so it’s really important that you take the time to read the candidates’ manifestos and vote to ensure that your voice gets heard.
For many students, the SU is the focal-point of campus life here at Warwick – whether that’s providing wellbeing support through campaigns and the Advice Centre, academic representation through our Course Rep system, social activities via Clubs & Societies, or entertainment and nourishment in our nightclub and food outlets. The students YOU elect to serve as Officers each look after a specific area of the SU, and can have a huge impact on your experience during your time at Warwick: in recent years, the 24-Hour Library, rent freezes on campus and a comprehensive review of postgraduate pay would not have happened without the support and lobbying of Sabbatical Officers, so they really do make a big difference!
Read on for more information about why it matters, and don’t forget to vote this week – it’s your Students’ Union, so make sure you have a say in how it’s run.
