#swansea university
Hello everyone,
I know it has been a while since we posted everything, but Rachel and I (the Officers at Swansea University Students’ Union) have made a promise that we will be as transparent as possible in all we do as our time as elected officials at SUSU.
So everything we do, all campaigns we organise, all meetings we attend and all events we organise will be put up here for all to see!!
You can also of course use the ‘Ask Anonymously’ box to ask us any questions whether you have a Tumblr account or not.
And finally both Rachel and I’s email adresses are in the description, if you want to ask something privately or report an incident of homophobia in Swansea then please use these channels.
Love
Phil x
Swansea University LGBT+ Society welcomes all LGBT+ identities, including asexual people. Since we’re a new committee we haven’t been able to hold any events as of yet but I plan to work with our officers in the Student Union to have more educational events and workshops this year. These would be focused on raising awareness of some of the less discussed identities, attractions and sexualities in the community and I’ve committed to seeing these plans through in my role as President.
In general, the society is accepting of everyone regardless of how they identify as long as they abide by the constitution and safe space policy. I have no tolerance for prejudice or the attitude that some identities are more important than others. First and foremost, the society provides a place for people to be themselves. In the year that I have been part of the society I have found it to be a community that people enjoying being part of. In the case of many members, all we know is that they want to be part of the society without knowing how they identify.
The society is not centred on campaigning like many others, but I would like to host many more workshops on many topics in order to educate both new and existing members further. It may be impossible to have an awareness week for every type of orientation or identity but we’re planning on covering as many as we can, be it by workshop, leaflets or articles posted on our social network groups.
It’s great to see Swansea University on this list and great to hear about plans for this year!
It’s Wednesday… and we’re in the pub!
Not to chill out and have a bevvy but to continue spreading information about the services and support avsilable at Swansea University and Swansea University Student’s Union to its LGBT staff and students.
We’re in JC’s Coffee Side until 3pm so come and have a chat and discover something fascinating about LGBT History… and present, and future.
