Student Representatives

One of the primary functions of the Student Association is to present the student viewpoint to the university. We do this in a variety of ways and at various levels of the university structure. One of the main ways we put forward the student viewpoint is by having Student Representatives attend face to face meetings held by the university.

Student Reps are appointed (or for some committees they are elected) to sit on university committees and groups at both regional and national level. They put forward the student viewpoint by using; personal experience, anecdotal evidence, and by using OUSA policy from the Register of Decisions (the Associations policy document which contains all the policies decided over time by our annual conference).

The various types of Student Representative are:

• Central Representatives
• Central Disciplinary Committee Representatives
• Central Consultative Committee Representatives
• Regional Committee Representatives
• Regional Consultative Committee Representatives
• Regional Representatives to the Senate Reference Group

More about each of these roles in a while.
