Law
Hugo Wagenmakers
List leader
Student Rechtsgeleerdheid and member of VUUR and PYO JSPvdA.
Hugo: My motivation to participate is that I would like to see change in certain matters at the faculty LEG. I have seen and heard the same dissatisfaction from fellow students and that is why I am going to try to realise my solutions via lijst VUUR, because I like the cooperation within this party. Besides, it seems like a lot of fun to participate!
Luuk Nafzger
Number 2
Student Rechtsgeleerdheid, member of JSVU and active member of D66 Utrecht.
Luuk: I like to take part in the social debate and to work together towards solutions. I do this by actively engaging with first-year students at my faculty, among other things. Therefore, I am not afraid to ask questions, to be critical and to give my opinion. And if something happens at the university and I think it should be done differently, I will bring it up with the faculty. I send emails to the director of education and the departments, sometimes on behalf of my fellow students, and I consult with them if I think something should be done differently. I have achieved things before and in this way I contribute to good communication between students and lecturers. My main point of departure is always that every student can participate and study, thus reaching his or her optima.
Elianne Westra
Number 5
Student Rechtsgeleerdheid and member of Jonge Democraten Utrecht.
Elianne: The past 5 years I have had a colourful and active student life in Utrecht. During this time I have been active in various student associations, PYOs and social organisations. With all these experiences, I would now like to get involved in representing the students of the faculty LEG of Utrecht University. To contribute to the development of the studies and the bond with the students!
