It's well over a week since I did the last update, and that time just flew.
Well all of us have been to Belfast visiting the SU there. It's an absolutely mammoth building and we picked up a few ideas there as well as realising we see a whole lot of students in comparison...we stopped into DCUSU, TCDSU and UCDSU on the way back to grab a look. Trinity's SU President Cónán O'Broin is the younger brother of former ULSU President Eoin O'Brion who served 2 terms from 2002-2004.
I'm still getting feedback from landlords on the group scheme we're getting together, many bringing good ideas as well as expressing interest. I've met a good number of suppliers on their behalf and it's looking godd for the year from those who have responded.
Myself, Aoife F and Paul Lee have been liaising with Aidan Healy on the President's Award, which is still undergoing consultation in the University. Gaisce is one model being discussed that will see students get formal recognition for volunteer work. I'm working with KBS to see if they will be able to facilitate students volunteering to give grinds to Leaving Certs. This system is already in place in for Science and has great scope for expansion.
There are some operation reviews around my Office ongoing, and I'll let you know where that goes.
Myself and Aoife Ní met Tracey from ITD who explained the new email system to us (which you will need to adopt as your own by the end of September.)
An ongoing process is finding a 4x4 for Clubs and Societies, which I was working on on the Clubs and Socs Exec over the last 2 years, hopefully that will be complete soon, and a review of vehicle operations should give us some new rules to govern the fleet usage.
What else....the Accommodation Leaflet is in motion and there's a bit of the regular case work around Childcare Bursary and Hardship Loan as well as other stuff.
