Hey folks,
I’m John Blomme. I am currently serving as Vice-President
Academic for the Students’ Association of Mount Royal College.
I got involved with the students’ association last year as a
student’s councilor. I ended up serving as Commissioner to the
VP External for the year. This is my first year serving as an
executive officer for the Students’ Association.
My position involves helping you understand College policies
including grade appeals and grievances, the Code of Student
Conduct, and disqualifications. I’m here to help you
understand the process, let you know who to talk to and give
advice. I’m also here to help you understand your rights and
responsibilities as a student here at Mount Royal College.
I sit on over 20 committees within the College. I am the
Student Academic Caucus leader which means I organize and
support the student reps on Academic Council, a recommending
body to the Board of Governors on academic issues.
Additionally, I am the chair of the Membership Development
Fund Committee, which distributes up to $11,000 annually to
students pursuing professional development outside of the
College setting. These funds are accessible by all MRC credit
students.
I am also involved with our provincial lobby organization,
ACTISEC. ACTISEC stands for the Alberta Colleges and Technical
Institutes Student Executive Council and has 13 member schools
from across Alberta. I am currently serving as treasurer of
ACTISEC, which is a non-voting position on the board.
If you have
any questions regarding SAMRC, ACTISEC, or any academic
issues, please do not hesitate to contact me in the Wyckham
House Student Center (Z201, second floor).
Thanks,
and have a great year! |
