Winning for You
Every day, elected students across the Union are making positive changes to Your Surrey Life. Here are just a few examples. 🎉
Addressing Academic Issues and Communicating Student Feedback
1. Collecting and Communicating Student Feedback on Test Formulas: A lecturer asked me to gather feedback from the cohort on whether formulas should be provided on a separate formula sheet or embedded directly into the test paper. I collected feedback from students and shared the cohort’s views with the lecturer to help inform their decision. 2. Improving Access to Lecture Notes: Students raised concerns that the lecturer’s handwritten notes were difficult to read when watching lecture recordings. I raised this issue directly with the lecturer, who agreed to upload the complete set of notes by the end of the semester to help students access clearer learning materials. The lecturer also emphasised the importance of students taking their own notes during lectures.

Black Sport Collective
For the Black Sport Collective Relaunch we hosted a Barbershop, where we brought in a local Afro-specialist barber, Mayur, who offered free haircuts and advice around hair care. We also created space for students to meet one another, have conversations and engage with organisations that could provide further opportunities and support. We invited two organisations who aligned with the wider purpose of the collective - Black Tennis Mentors UK and Black Minds Matter UK in conjunction with the Student Equality Network.
