Having come close to victory in last years elections for the same position Razvan is some what of a known quantity.

His manifesto talks about class representatives,SRC funded scholarships and improving essay and coursework feedback. Q&A ...

Standing as part of the “Our Glasgow” slate, Cowie has an inbuilt base of support. However her relatively low campus profile and the slate itself could work against her. Main manifesto talking points are about transparency and accountabilty on the university Senate and the commercialization of Freshers’ Week. Q&A Guardian: It seems pretty clear from ...

His manifesto focuses on improving support for clubs and societies and a reevaluation of how the University handles student debt. Q&A ...

Currently the QMU’s Campaigns and Charities Convener and with a background in volunteering as long as an elephants trunk; Munro is the candidate with the most directly relevant experience to the position of vice-president student support.

A quick read of Chizzy’s manifesto quickly reveals that (shock-horror) somebody perhaps isn’t taking the entire process quite as seriously as everybody else. His comic leanings shouldn’t fool you though, having served as the QMU’s honorary assistant secretary he has a large support base. The chances of this joke becoming a reality aren’t to be ...
