I feel very listened to and valued as a class rep

# data[].attributes.body
A silly thing the SA can improve is emphasizing that things the SA do are free for students? Student Pantry is free, most events are free and the Breakfast Club is free. Is there a way the SA promote this better or get rid of that assumption??

# data[].attributes.body
Just in general the cost of living is getting ridiculous so it might make some events and things hard to attend financially for some people.

# data[].attributes.body
If College staff workloads increase it may limit what relationships the SA can build and or events the SA can run in future

# data[].attributes.body
With the impending cuts it may limit what the SA can do for students in future

# data[].attributes.body
One way the SA can grow is by building better relationships with staff especially knowing what other staff do

# data[].attributes.body
Missing a regular society fair. Something that can be done once or twice per term that introduces students to societies, showcases what they are and advertises them better

# data[].attributes.body
Although this is a change the SA are currently working on, having a more variety of events would be great. Stalls have a purpose but can be repetitive and even boring (sorry)

# data[].attributes.body

Time! We have so much to focus on but not enough time.

# data[].attributes.body
Not shouting out about what we do enough, we're really good at keeping to up to date with what's going on, but not patting outselves on the back and talking about our impact. - Carrie

# data[].attributes.body
Communication within the team sometimes isn't the best, we do speak a lot so sometimes it's easy to miss stuff. As we're all working on so many projects we forget what have done. This is also an accountability issue at times as well as a workload issue. We could all benefit from utilizing the team task tracker more- Carrie

# data[].attributes.body
We are not in enough places for enough time. We could do with cloning ourselves! We don't have enough people resource (staff, volunteering, exec officers) - carrie
