I’m this year’s academic affairs officer. What does that mean?
In the most extreme cases, it means that if anyone finds themselves struggling academically and either wants or needs help or intervention from college, I can act as a point of contact, and as someone who will fight for you in meetings with them. But my role isn’t one that indicates any sort of failure. It is there to promote positive and pro-active academic habits, from the moment you get here to the day you graduate from your undergrad. And that’s why I’m recommending to you all, whether you’re an incoming student or going into your finals year, to make as much use of the academic support on offer as possible.
We have the privilege of being able to attend 2-3 academic skills lectures a term, and have academic student support services available to us, which begins the academic year without a waiting list. Links are at: https://unioxfordnexus.sharepoint.com/sites/UNIV-AcTS
