ADVICE
The Advice Centre (SUAC) is a free and confidential advice service for potential and current students.You might worry that you’re the first person to encounter a particular problem but you’re probably not. Last year they dealt with more than 7,000 enquiries so they’re sure to have met others facing the same situation. Further information can be found at:www.cusu.org/advice
REPS
The Rep System is in place to give you a voice. The Student Reps department consists of 4 areas: Course Reps, Halls Reps, Service Reps and Community Reps. If you have any questions or concerns about your course, where you live, or any other aspect of student life you can contact your Rep for support and guidance.Reps are students just like you, they aim to see things from your point of view and they will represent you at University meetings to make sure your voice is heard. They are there to help, so make sure you stay in contact with them and let them know of any problems you have. To get more information on what Reps do, and to see how you can get involved, go to: www.cusu.org/reps Continued back page

So buy your Freshers Pass and come and see us to find out more about our services at www.cusu.org. Check us out online for more information on how we make a difference, and we look forward to seeing you in September.
SABBATICAL OFFICERS
