Faculty Reps

Faculty reps represent the issues and priorities of students in their faculty to staff at both faculty and university level. This is by gathering feedback from course reps and other students, attending and chairing Faculty Student Staff Liaison Committee meetings, attending the University’s Senate Meeting, Bristol SU’s Standing Committee and a few other things.
