The student assessor bridges the gap between students and the board. What motivated you to become a student-assessor?

During my studies, I have been involved with the UvA a lot. For example, I was a student ambassador and teaching assistant. I liked that, so I wanted to stay involved. I wanted to become a student assessor so that I could give my student perspective on various policies.

What themes are important to you this year?

I think it is important that students can study as well as possible. But also that students can prepare well for their careers after their studies. This also involves (social) safety and a pleasant study environment.

Where do you start first as a student assessor?

First, I want to get a better idea of students' wants and needs. Of course, I have my own ideas from my experience as a student, but I think it is important to hear multiple perspectives.
