On March 1st, the 31st reporting and election conference of the Klaip\u0117da University Student Union (hereinafter \u2013 KUSS) took place. During the event, many issues important to the organization were discussed: approval of the KUSS statutes, presentation of annual and financial activity reports, reports of the audit committee and the board. A new audit committee was formed. Delegates also elected a new union president \u2013 Olivija Vaidak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Asked about the difficulties of relinquishing his position, the outgoing union president, Augustas Andru\u0161ka, stated that while he doesn’t fully feel like he’s stepped down, he feels much calmer: Your \u201cFacebook Messenger\u201d doesn’t constantly explode, you don’t have to constantly reply to emails or plan evening work to get everything done. It’s a bit sad, because after a year, it becomes routine \u2013 how to work, how to cope, how to live with it. I calculated that I spent three and a half years in the KUSS office. So now leaving all this is painful. There was work, fatigue \u2013 everything. But still, there was motivation to learn the news, to be a student representative. Now there’s a certain emptiness, which perhaps will be filled by Alumni activities. It’s difficult because at the same time I have to leave both the status of a Full Member and the office. About the new presidency, A. Andru\u0161ka commented positively: I can’t say much, because most of the people came from my previous team, who stayed with me until the end. These are people I trusted and trust. I can assure you that half of the team is truly competent and responsible. And about the new members of the team, I can also confirm that everyone is truly enthusiastic, motivated, and active, demonstrating competence and responsibility in various events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new Student Union president, Olivija Vaidak, stated that the hardest part of running for this position was figuring out the action strategy she would like to pursue: The hardest part was understanding in which direction I would like to go, understanding what topics I would like to tackle with my team and where to make a change. The LSS mentorship program, where I worked with Smilt\u0117 Kiaunyt\u0117, the former Vilnius Tech SA president, helped a lot. Together with her, we had productive conversations, after which I knew where I wanted to focus. However, despite this, Olivija did not find it difficult to decide to run for president: Since my first year, I knew I wanted this position, but I lacked experience and understanding of organizational activities. Having started as Vice-President in August’s team, I knew I wanted more. Asked about the changes that await KUSS during her term, the new president replied: We will improve the flexibility of studies at the university, strengthen the organization’s community, student representatives, and further improve relations with the entire KU community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We wish the new team and president success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
