Publications Officer

Student Association publications are the side of the Association's work that everyone is most aware of. They are also, I believe, one of the most important aspects of the Association.

Through Salient, students can see what their elected representatives are doing, what the state of the Association's finances are, check out social events and club activities, read a variety of views on many subjects, and even (God forbid) read the manifestos of aspiring executive members. However, if Salient is to continue these important functions, it must be administered competently, both to ensure financial viability, and to protect it from the attacks that have been leveled at it, both from within the Association and from outside it.

The Publications Officer's role is an administrative one — one that I feel I can usefully and competently fill. Throughout the year, I have maintained an active interest in the activities of the Association. I am a member of the Publications Board and have extensive experience of working on Salient. This has given me an understanding of both the administrative and technical sides of Salient. This job requires a large amount of committment - committment that I will be able to provide.
