Manifesto

Vote James for BL Clinical Rep 
About me 

Hi, my name is James and I am currently a 2nd-year medical student. I am very passionate about ensuring that education is oriented to what the students need not what the uni think we want. As clinical rep, I would help shape the education for the clinical students especially with the aftermath of the pandemic. 

 

My experience 
  • Year 1 Course Representative 2019-20 

  • BL Pre Clinical Representative 2020-2021 

  • Deputy Chair of QMSU Student Council 2020-21 

  • Treasurer of BLUS Society 2020-21 

  • Tech Officer of BL Drama 2020-21 

 

My Plans 
COVID REPAIR 

Everyone has had their teaching interrupted in the past year. I plan to ensure that nobody is disadvantaged by the pandemic and ensure there is plenty of opportunities for students to have the teaching that was missed. 

 

CONTINUE TO BUILD RELATIONSHIPS WITH MALTA 

This year I have worked closely with the Gozo rep to improve the representation of Malta. I aim to continue this work to help improve the relationship between the campuses. 

 

IMPROVE THE EDUCATION FAIR 

Since the fair hasn't been held in the last 2 years, I plan to bring it back better than ever. I aim to increase the diversity of specialities as well as include international opportunities for students to be more informed of the opportunities available. 

 

BE THE VOICE OF STUDENTS 

I aim to ensure that the uni listens to our opinions on proposed changes to ensure they benefit us. I will always listen to every student's concerns and support them in any way I can.
