Guild Pres Rant

Hey QC members and allies,

I'm Clare, the Murdoch Guild President for 2008. Emma has asked me to post a bit about the Guild, and why it is important for you all to join!

The Guild is the peak student association on all three of Murdoch University’s campuses, and is here to represent you. As well as providing many events and activities on campus, and discounts at our outlets to financial Guild members, we provide advocacy and representation. The Guild is here to fight for the rights of all students, and make sure oppressed groups, such as womyn, indigenous students and queer students, are represented. The Guild has a Queer officer and collective and provides a Queer safe space for Queer students on campus. As well as this, most of the representatives and staff at the guild are Allies, and we are here to help you with any problem you might have while you are at university. It is my goal that this year the Guild as a whole (not just our dedicated Queer rep) supports Queer events and is at the forefront of the movement for Queer rights. So support the Guild that supports you and become a financial member in 2008, and get active in the Queer collective!

In solidarity,

Clare Middlemas

Guild President, 2008
