Petition targeted at:

University of Ulster Senior Management

We want them to: 

Repeal the recent decision by the University of Ulster to forbid the Students’ Union from providing a full complement of services and facilities following the move from South Building to Central Building.

This is important because:

The move to Central is welcome news to the SU, providing us with an excellent location for our student activity. However, the University has disregarded the Student Voice in recent plans in relation to the move. The Students’ Union currently offers a range of services to Students including affordable catering as well as a vibrant social space in South Building. However, following the move to Central, Students will be deprived of proper facilities as the University implements restrictions on our activity.

Students have a right to an affordable, lively and vibrant SU. If the University stick with their plans to privatise all catering in UUC, Students will have no options for a reasonably- priced meal on campus. We intend to provide a social hub with a relaxing atmosphere where students can have a cheap hot meal or alternatively bring lunch. This decision by University Senior Management will severely impact the student experience for years to come.

Make your voice heard and sign the petition.

University Senior Management thinks they can strip away our facilities and force us into overpriced options without a fight. I am reading your comments and it is clear that nobody on this campus is willing to roll over for their corporate agenda. They are trying to ignore us but this pressure is only going to intensify.

The price of food on campus is already a joke. Making it even more expensive is just greedy honestly.

Total disgrace. If they think we have money for overpriced shops they are mistaken. keep the su proper.

Ridiculous decision. The SU is the only place I can actually afford to eat between lectures. leave it alone.
