SU President – Aditi Sethiya

Hello everyone, my name is Aditi Sethiya. I study MSc Management, having done my undergraduate degree in Psychology, running for SU President.

“Leading Change, Empowering Students.”

How do you aim to lead the SU to help students in financial hardship?

I’ll push authorities for making education more accessible and reduce the cost of transportation, and that is one of the points in my manifesto as well – that I will work for minimizing their transportation cost and give all the cost of living support, as much as possible, to all the students.

What do you think isn’t been done by the SU leadership enough for students?

Actually, I do feel that students are lacking some kind of services and mental health support and menstrual health support. So I would like to work towards, a betterment of the mental health and menstrual health support in the union and all over the campuses.

What experience – in SU and general student involvement – can you bring to this role?

Again, my undergrad, I worked as student representative, and I also worked in IIT Bombay as my campus representative, and I led the team for their fest. And here, I am a course rep and course rep at the management, and I’m working towards getting all the feedback and making education more appropriate for everyone and, making, them all the lecture recordings available and taking feedback on time so that, all the students are heard, supported, and empowered.
