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 />

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