My name is Baie Perryman, and I am proud to be running for Rural Officer as part of the Connect for AUU team this year!

Connect is all about you. Given that your money funds the AUU and SRC, we firmly believe that it should be put towards improving your university experience: more events, stronger support and better services.

Crucially, Connect has a proven track record of delivering on its promises. Over the past year we have championed a carbon neutral future for the UofA, secured record funding for Stress Less Week, actively worked to achieve sexual assault reform, supported the LGBTQIA+ community by taking real action, assisted in developing UofA’s landmark Disability Inclusion Action Plan and backed rural students with strong SRC representation. We see you, we hear you, we are committed to serving you.

We want you to study in an environment that is supportive, sustainable and safe. The UofA is currently undergoing several transitions and it is critical that your student representatives be proactive and continue to advocate for YOUR interests.

For an exciting, vibrant, and sustainable student union that works for you, vote [1] Connect for AUU – the green team on campus!
