eduWeb 2016 Social Media Student College Choice PresentationCorie Martin, Ed.D.
The document discusses how social media engagement is key during the student recruitment process.

The research recommends colleges enhance social media engagement throughout the entire enrollment cycle to help students connect with the institution and establish friendships that can influence their final enrollment decision.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

What is Digital Literacy? A guest blog from Andy McLaughlin, University of Ab...
So you want to be a sabb
1. So you want to be a Sabb
If you’re thinking about running,
what do you need to know, to do,
to prepare?
2. So, you want to be a Sabb?
• Roles
• Experience
• Qualifications
• Involvement
• Popularity
• Winning
• What next?
3. Paid Roles
• Full-time paid Officers
– Guild President - lead student representative on
internal & external matters. Trading & Business’
– Athletic Union President - Leader of the AU. Sporting
student representation.
– VP Welfare & Diversity - Equality and Diversity.
Student Welfare.
– VP Activities - societies, student democracy and
employability
– VP Education - Research-led education. Student
partnerships in education.
• The four full-time Guild Sabb Officers are members of Guild
Council, and Officer Trustees of the Guild.
• The Athletic Union President is a member of Guild Council.
4. Unpaid Roles
• Part-time elected volunteer Officers
– Student Trustee – charity equivalent of company
board member. Does not deliver active policy.
– DVP International – represents all international
students and leads the International Students’
Council.
– DVP Campaigns – leads on student campaigns
and represents campaign groups.
– DVP Sustainability – leads on issues of
sustainability and globalisation, representing and
taking action for students.
• The three part-time DVP students will be members of
Guild Council and also chair mini-Councils.
5. Experience
• Being a student at Exeter
– Seriously, that’s all the experience you need.
– Your individual ‘student experience’ will inform
you on what things you want changed, and
that goes into your manifesto.
6. Qualifications
• None required…
– Previous Sabbs include students who’ve done
nothing more in terms of elected office than
being on a Society committee or using the
Ram on a regular basis.
– Yes – a lot of those elected have also been
Guild Councillors, or a part of Societies
Executive or ESV, but the point is those things
aren’t necessary.
7. Involvement
• None required…
– If you’ve bought a pint in the Ram, or been to
the Lemmy or eaten at Pieminister then
you’ve been involved with the Guild, whether
you realised it or not.
– But even if you’ve done none of these things,
and never set foot in Devonshire House,
never joined a Society, never spoken to a
course Rep…
– You can still run for Sabb office.
8. Popularity
• This isn’t Mean Girls
– Although people say that the election is a
popularity contest, it really isn’t…
– Any student taking part needs at least 1,000
first preference votes to win – that would
mean knowing (and being liked by) at least
1,000 students.
– Even BNOCs don’t have that reach.
9. Winning…
• Even if you’ve lost in the past
– Former President Nick Davies lost two posts
to different students the year before he was
elected…
– He beat both of those students in the
President election that year.
10. What Next?
• Training and Information
– There will be training for any student
interested in running from 11 January to 22
January.
– You can drop by the Sabb Office in DH1 any
time to talk to the current Sabbs about what
they do, and what you can promise to do.
– The training includes information on manifesto
writing, and you don’t need that complete
before nominations close on Thursday 28
January 2016.
– You must come to one compulsory meeting –
