Global Unity on Campus - Precious Nwanze (Activities Officer Chelmsford)
I believe there should be global unity at Anglia Ruskin. Having a more diverse and united campus will improve cultural awareness and community among ARU students.
Have a look at my aim and objectives below to see how I am going to achieve this;
Aim: For all students at Anglia Ruskin University to feel part of a truly diverse community that celebrates different cultures and embraces opportunities to network and get involved
- We will create a cross-campus International Society with 500 members by the academic year 17/18
- We will bring existing culture-based societies together, through events and opportunities for collaboration
- We will continue to develop and strengthen our partnership with the International Office in order to further the experience of our students
Objective number 1: recently we have created a new International Society in both Cambridge and Chelmsford. If you would like to join in Chelmsford, click here. For the Cambridge society, click here.
Objective number 2: I recently organised a Black History Month celebration, which brought together a number of societies, students, SU & University staff. It was a fantastic event and great to see our students collaborating and being proud of their culture.
Objective number 3: Also as part of our team’s mental health campaign Let’s Be Honest, I have been able to take part in the University’s iBuddy Scheme, which has been a great experience chatting with new International students and being able to help them settle in. To hear more about my time as an iBuddy take a read of my article here. We will also be planning Global Week in partnership with the International Office next semester.
