THE
PRESIDENT'S DESK
Hi folks,
Welcome back to a new semester. Like yourselves the S.A.
will be busy over the next few months. The immediate issue facing
the S.A. is the National Demo in London on 20th February
organised by NUS. This demonstration is concerned with Student
Hardship. This was a key issue on the doorsteps in the last
general election according to Tony Blair. Therefore, this demonstration
is vital in helping students in the rest of the UK as well as Scotland.

The route itself will pass landmarks such as the River Thames,
the Houses of Parliament, Downing Street and Whitehall. It will
then conclude in Trafalgar Square.
Another event we hope to involve ourselves with is the Student
Wall of Debt. This has been very popular in a couple of other
Scottish Universities and produces astonishing figures of debt that
you would find it hard to believe is true. I will keep you posted.
Yours
Jamie
