My name is Eliska Hribalova and I am running to become the Senator for the Tourism and Sport Department. Many of you may already know me from my previous work in student representation. I began as a Class Representative in my first year, continued as International Officer, and most recently served as Vice President for Academic Life in the Students’ Union. Through these roles, I have developed a strong understanding of how the Student Senate works, what can be changed, and how to achieve meaningful improvements for students.
I am currently in my third year of International Tourism with Event Management. By working closely with students, I have seen first-hand the challenges within our department: academic pressures, placement concerns, timetables, access to sport and wellbeing activities, and a need for clearer communication and stronger support. I understand what students are missing and what changes could genuinely improve our experience.
If elected, I will work to:
• Strengthen communication between students, lecturers, and the administration
• Improve placement and industry connections for Tourism and Sport students
• Support greater access to sport, recreation, and wellbeing initiatives on campus
• Advocate for fair timetables and better workload balance
• Increase visibility and accessibility of Erasmus, mobility, and international opportunities
• Encourage student-led events, activities, trips, and community engagement within our field
My experience in the Students’ Union has taught me how to listen, how to raise issues effectively, and how to work through policy and procedure to create real change rather than empty promises. I know how to represent students calmly, strategically, and with a focus on solutions.
My goal is simple: a stronger student voice and a better everyday experience for every student in the Tourism and Sport Department. I am ready to represent you again and to bring forward the concerns, ideas, and ambitions that define our student community.
Thank you for your support and for believing in the importance of student representation. I would be honoured to serve as your Senator for Tourism and Sport.
