Leen Ali has been re-elected for a second term as president of Stirling’s Students’ Union. Ali won by a landslide, with 1382 of 1821 votes.
Ali talks in her manifesto about continuing the Community Food Initiative, getting more accessible microwaves, and “pushing for interculturalism awareness amongst the University and support catered for international students”.
“My plans are to get the Community Food Initiative up and running, international student support, and improve on a lot of things I wasn’t able to achieve last year,” she said.
Ali also campaigned last year to use the digital screens around campus and in the Macrobert Arts Centre to advertise student-run projects and events. Ali plans to continue that this year.
“I would like to say there are a few things that are a lot slower to do that are still undone,” she continued.
“We are still in the process of getting screen space to highlight student creativity. Because of the policy system that they have in place, that is very unclear and doesn’t highlight the space they have for student creation.
“There’s a meeting coming up in March and that’s when a lot of things will be decided. We should have something in place soon.”
