This is a selection of the things that SUBU has done to support you in the last term. SUBU exists to enhance your student experience during your years here at BU. Our role is to help you by giving you the chance to enhance your CV, increase your confidence, make new friends and help you if you are in need. We influence key University decisions as well as representing your views both locally and nationally. As you can see, we’ve been busy bees…it’s just the tip of the iceberg and there is lots more to come!
