The AStA (General Students’ Committee) spokesperson collective currently consists of three spokespeople. That’s us: Nell (she/her), Max (they/them) und Dominic (he/him).
We were elected by the Student*innenparlament (StuPa) in June 2022 and our task is to represent the student body in its political, social, and cultural matters to the public and the various groups at the university. We regularly hold discussions with various people and groups at the university to find out about the latest developments for you and to advocate for your interests. We do this not only at the university, but also on the city, state, an federal level.
We also network with other students’ unions. This happens on a state level at the LandesAstenKonferenz (LAK) and on a national level at the fzs (federation of student unions).
Our daily work mainly includes the organization, coordination, and administration of the AStA. We are employers of the numerous employees in the AStA and support the departments. Therefore, every Wednesday at 14:30 there is an AStA general meeting with all departments, in which current topics are discussed that mainly concern the AStA with its departments or the university in general. These meetings take place in the AStA meeting room and are open to the university. Interested people are therefore welcome at any time!
Besides, we realize political events and activities – often in cooperation with the societies and student initiatives of the university. Furthermore, we are responsible for organizing the annual freshers party and the AStA summer festival.
Generally speaking, we are therefore the interface between the student body and all other members of the university. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or problems. Most of the time we can help you directly, otherwise we know who to consult in order to help you.
