Simran Rughani, Academic Vice President of VUWSA, stepped down from her role last Friday, due to the stress of a high workload.
Her departure will be a huge loss to the exec, as she was the last bastion of any sort of attempt to have a cleaning roster for the VUWSA kitchen.
Simran said she has “thoroughly enjoyed” her time on the executive. “VUWSA is an experience like no other,” she said.
“However I have struggled with maintaining balance between my VUWSA duties, study, and my other activities… looking after yourself and your wellbeing should always come first, no matter how hard the decision is to make.”
Marlon Drake, VUWSA President, said “Simran has been an amazing part of our team and we are sad to see her go”.
VUWSA will not be holding a by-election to fill her role as it’s too close to the end of the year.
