New Student GuildThe students of the St. Augustine Campus have spoken. On March 9, elections were held for the 2017-2018 UWI St. Augustine Guild of Students and change has come. Former Guild Treasurer Jonathan St. Louis-Nahous is the new Guild President Elect, one of many new office holders. In a statement following his victory, St. Louis-Nahous said “I see this not as a personal victory, but rather a triumph for the students of UWI as we return to the essence of representation.” The election results followed a week of campaigning that began on Thursday, March 2 and included forums at all five halls of residence as well as a general forum at the Student Activity Centre (SAC). Voting was held at SAC, the Faculty of Law (law students only) and the Medical Science Student Council Office at Mt. Hope (medical students). “As the students of The UWI we are the key players in a movement towards a socially, economically, and politically sustainable region, and we must seize the potential for powerful impact on the global stage,” St. Louis-Nahous stated. “It is time for us to remember this. There is a call to be answered, a call to be greater.” Official Guild Election Results 2017-2018 PRESIDENT: Jonathon St Louis-Nahous |
