BANTER<br />

It’s the last time this<br />

year’s Sabb team<br />

will answer your<br />

questions, so we’ve<br />

grilled them to fi nd<br />

out what their true<br />

priorities are for<br />

the term, and what<br />

Olympic sport they<br />

will be keeping an<br />

eye on!<br />

JO O RHODES<br />

President<br />

What is your role?<br />

Representing <strong>Northumbria</strong><br />

<strong>Students</strong> – to the <strong>University</strong>, the<br />

community and even nationally!<br />

I lead our lovely Sabb team and<br />

campaign on the things that matter to you!<br />

What have you been working on this month?<br />

Getting a bigger library! Also been working on getting<br />

meetings with MPs so that they Sabb team can lobby them<br />

on all things Higher Education!<br />

What are your priorities for the last few months of term?<br />

Lots of things: Finishing off all the campaigns, getting<br />

ready for Welcome Week and sorting out access<br />

agreements (the off er that students from lower income<br />

backgrounds get from the <strong>University</strong>).<br />

If you could only do one more thing in your role what<br />

would it be?<br />

Make sure the new space that students can eat their own<br />

food in at Coach Lane is looking pretty sweeeeet!<br />

What is your favourite Olympic sport and why?<br />

It would be Netball – but that’s not an Olympic sport –<br />

BOOOOO!<br />

What have you been working on this month?<br />

This month has been hectic – I’ve been to London to lobby<br />

MP’s, Nottingham for the NaSTA Awards with NU: TV and<br />

represented you at NUS Conference in Sheffi eld, a right jet<br />

What is your favourite Olympic sport and why?<br />

I love the people that swing around on the poles, there<br />

really cool, but I’m also really looking forward to the<br />

Paralympics as I get to volunteer in the press offi ce, MEGA<br />
