Helen Loud (She/Her)
Hiya, I’m Helen and I am a post-grad student in the Modernities MLitt programme.
If elected as the postgrad college convenor for the Arts & Humanities my main goal is to help other students feel understood and listened to in the wider university community as well as among postgrads.
During my undergrad I volunteered as a peer mentor for students that were struggling to adjust to their courses and to university life and I’m thrilled to have the chance to do the same at Glasgow. In the role I want people to help people feel comfortable to address both tricky issues and the little issues that can feel silly.
One of the ways I want to achieve this is by being reachable in different formats as I know postgrad life can have a few more barriers to making time for meetings and survey type inquiries. Should I be elected you’ll be able to reach me online, by email, or in person (whether on campus or a more casual environment if that’s more comfortable).
Accessibility is important to me and I will advocate for postgrads and for the university community more widely to have their voice heard and presence notices.
