Your Ideas

Ideas

All good ideas start with a conversation 
 

This is your platform to enable you to create real change in your university. We know that there are some great things about Anglia Ruskin that you probably want to see more of, but also some areas that need improving or changing. This is your platform to do this.

 

So, how does it work?

1. First of all, submit your idea 

2. Get your mates to give your idea at least 25 likes within 2 weeks

3. Once you hit this, your idea is turned into a Big Idea and taken to your Executive Officer Team to take forward with you.

 

As long as your idea is something the Students’ Union is able to work with (we can’t help you get free McDonalds every Monday, for example), and depending on its complexity (or controversy, we do like a bit controversy…) it is then taken to one of the following groups:

  • Executive Committee
  • The Ideas Forum
  • A Student Members meeting 

Providing it is not something that has already been done before, negatively affects other students or staff, or is simply just too outrageous, then we will get in touch with you to figure out what our next steps will be together

We will then put the idea into action and regularly monitor its progress and keep everyone updated as regularly as we can

 

It might be that your idea should become a Students’ Union policy. If a policy is passed at Student Council or an All Student Meeting we are mandated to work by it. If this is the case, don’t worry, we will help you put that together.

So, what are you waiting for? Get submitting ideas and get liking any others that you think are important!

10:23am on 24 May 17 Hello Shannon, thank you for your idea. As your idea has gotten over 25 likes, the officer team had a discussion about that. However, the Rep hoodies are funded by the university faculties. We have over 100 committee members and the SU don’t have funding for hoodies. Alternatively, if your society want to get hoodies we will help you facilitate the process and arrange with a company who will produce it for you but the funding will come out of your membership account because grant money is not given to benefit individual as the hoodies will be given to individual. For the future we might put this into consideration...
