VP Welfare Susan Kearney has resigned from her elected Students’ Union post.
Kearney said that she was “head-hunted” for another job, which will require her to leave her SU role before her term in office formally comes to a close.
“It was too good an opportunity to turn down,” she said.
Susan refused to comment when asked for a response to those who would be critical of her decision to stand down early.
The Sabbatical’s resignation must be formally approved at the next Union Executive Management Committee meeting.
More information on this story will be included in the next edition of The Gown, available from Monday 1st March 2010.
That poor clampet duffy, poor him, he got more votes than any of the others in the sab elections this year, lets attack him for having a life! major lol at that comment, pity the SU wouldnt let those clampets organise their club nites, then maybe the union wouldnt be in such a financial mess!
“As a girl I found the comments in The Gown highly inappropriate.”
What did they say? I didn’t see last issue. Was it really bad? Were they really sexually explicit?!
Perhaps their taking him to task for having to much of a life and not a work ethic?
Just because you get the most votes because of popularity or membership of a specific club doesn’t mean you were the best person for the job. James Murphy is a case in point.
Dont you dare compare duffy to james murphy, that gentle candyman is way above the other sabs, and other years, if he ran for election again he’d top the poll. alot of people that read this just dont like democracy!
I don’t think I’ll pay too much attention to Russell Group students who don’t know the difference between “weather” and “whether”.
Congrats 2 Susan for doing such a great job as her time as VP welfare officer!! It’s a shame we are losing a sabb officer who was easily approachable, seen around campus doing her job and actually trying to better student life for us all. Good luck in your new job
