MEET THE TEAM
Aleksandar Spasov
SU President, Loxton Campus
Hi, I am Aleks Spasov. As someone who was not born in the UK and having moved here, I understand the importance of having a voice. As well as this to be honest I have struggled with mental health in the past and that is why I believe it is important to have a voice to be able to express opinions for the betterment of everyone...
Ethan Rolfe
Knightstone Campus Officer
While in the role of Campus officer I want to maintain a strong relationship between students and staff. Listen to my peers and their feedback and I aim to work on making my department more green.
Izabella Williams
Vice President, Loxton Campus
I am very approachable to both year ones and twos and I think this will help me succeed as I believe if any students have a specific want/need they can come to me and I can work with the college to accommodate them.
