Freya Dinning
Hi, my name is Freya Dinning and I’m a 3rd year Classics student. For the last two years I have been your School of Humanities rep. My main goal as Undergraduate Convenor for College of Arts and Humanities is to continue with the work I have been doing this year, addressing the lack of humanities specific study space on campus, and expanding my efforts to include creative and creative arts, critical studies, and modern languages and cultures as well. There are constantly new and improved buildings on Campus for the other colleges and it’s about time that Arts and Humanities were included!
I also want to continue the work of the previous convenor on changing the support and guidance for the mandatory year abroad that many students within the college of Arts and Humanities have struggled with.
I intend to continue representing the voice of the students within the College of Arts and Humanities, using the knowledge and experience I have gained from being on the SRC council to ensure that your thoughts, feedback and criticisms are discussed with staff, and that you are listened to!
