I’m studying a Bachelor of physiotherapy (honours)
As a university student from a refugee background, my experience in Australia has been challenging yet very exciting. I consider myself a "people's person," always looking for ways to give back to the community. I have actively participated in volunteering/leadership over the years, and I can use my experiences and skills to benefit all students at City East Campus. My recent leadership experience includes representing as president of the Afghan Student's Club. One of the main reasons I wanted to become a student representative was to use everything I had learned in my community work to advocate for students' rights and needs and to support students through available services, and to have their say in important decision making at UniSA.
The aim for 2023 would be to bring back the social life in university environment so students can connect, share thoughts and ideas, become more creative, and explore with their peers, as well as providing that extra support to help students readjust to campus life and face to face learning mode. One of my primary goals is to make all students aware of and accessible to the support services provided by USASA and the University.
On campus medical clinics, the old buildings and the proximity to parklands and shopping centres.
The effort you put in now (whether for job hunting, academic success, or enriching yourself in other ways) will pay off big time.
I am looking forward to attending as much as events throughout the year so I can connect with students and hear any concerns they might have.

I wanted to become one because firstly, I think it's a great way to meet people and form new connectons, but I also wanted to do my part in the betterment of the student life.
More social events, feels like club events, uni events in general have seen a slight drop since COVID hit
City East is a cozy campus, it looks small from the outside but there's many things going on. It's calm and serene and I think it fits really well into the city. I love going to the library to study because it's never overcrowded and it feels very peaceful to be in.
I think uni is the best place to enjoy freedom before we eventually get jobs, so honestly make friends, make mistakes and in general have a good time before you have to buckle down into a day job.
As many as I can attend!

Social Work
What made me run and drives me to improve the lives of students across Uni SA is the struggle so many students have to go through to just get by. A crazy percentage of students live in poverty and can't afford basic necessities such as food or heating. With more then 100,000 students across Australia trying to live on $26 a day while at the same time getting shut out of welfare by purposeful government policy. It's such a pressing issue around our campuses and I feel very passionately about improving the services provided to students and lobbying governments to take into account the vital interests of students.
I feel passionately about improving campus culture and working to put in place more campus events. I think at Magill we are lucky because there really is a nice sense of community but it would be great to build on this.
Just being constantly surrounded by nature, it's always relaxing just walking around campus.
Just get involved, uni is alot more then lectures and coursework. While academic activities are important go out and join a club, create friends in your tutorials and make uni more then your studies.
Haven't really had a chance to see what events will be on yet but I'm keen to see what interesting club events there will be. Hoping to get involved with more clubs.
A good Chicken Parmi or any pub meal honestly
I mean you can't go past an ice coffee, but on a night out it probably would be an Adelaide Hills Cider
I'm a big ancient history nerd so would probably be a figure from the Roman Empire. Would just be amazing to hear their perspective on history and what life was really like back then.
I think I'm a fairly relaxed layed back person

I wanted to become a student reprehensive because I want every student who attends Uni SA to feel as sense of belonging within our community. I want to help every student feel heard by giving a voice to those who might be to afraid to speak up.
I hope to achieve more on campus events and activities to get all students engaged in every aspect of Uni culture.
The best thing about my campus is how natural and beautiful it is. There is always somewhere to sit within nature to study, talk or eat lunch with the animals around; it has a naturally calming vibe.
You will regret the risks you didn't take more than the ones you did.
All of them! I love the energy and excitement that comes for all the events and want to attend as many as I can.
Music; I love being able to listen to any song and have it relate to how I feel but can't always say. No matter what I am doing I love having some good background music.
Defiantly an ice vanilla oat latte.
Anne Frank because despite being caught up in the messiness of WW2 she remained positive and hopeful of the future.
I am a great listener. I will always be available to listen to anyone who needs it about anything

I hope for students to feel as though they are being unfairly scrutinised and for them to come out of uni with good memories of many fun times.

I wanted to become a student representative because I want work with my peers to help provide the opportunity for students to thrive during studies and make most of their University Experience. To act as a voice and help advocate for students and make difference where I am able to.
Covid-19 has been hard on all of us which has led to changes and cancellations is many services the university previously provided. I want to help put that behind us and try to ensure that everyone has access to services which are accessible when students need them the most. Ensure that students have a right to shape their own University experience and their own journey.
The cheap Parking and Zambrero.
Go to as many university events as you can, make new connections, new friends and new memories. Study hard, Don't make the mistake of skipping classes and make most of your university experience.

If I could have Dinner with anyone, It would be my great grandfather. My family didn't come from a very privileged background. I would love to talk with him and get to know more about his life and feel connected and closer to my families roots, background and culture.
My best personality trait is being optimistic. Nothing being in a good mood can't fix.
