MY PRIORITIES FOR THE YEAR:
•Represent the interests of mature and part-time students in student union meetings.
•Campaign to reduce tuition fees and work for the establishment of specialist support grant

•Lobby for more academic support, special office hours and extended deadlines
HOW I CAN HELP YOU:
• Listen to your issues and bring them up during meetings to look for solutions.
• Provide information about services specially allocated to mature/ part-time students
Get involved with your SU:
Most LSE mature and part-time students do not get involved in the vibrant political life at the LSE. I will work very hard to change this as it is a truly rewarding experience.
If you would like to get involved, do not hesitate to get in touch and I will endeavor to point you at the right direction.
Examples of past campaigns include opposing increases in tuition fees, sit-in protest against the appointment of BP chairman Peter Sutherland as chair of LSE, Living wage campaign in support of our cleaners, twinning LSE SU with An-Najah National University in Nablus in support of the Palestinian right to education and against Israeli abuses of human rights and crimes against humanity, climate change campaign and environmental awareness.
