Dorian Valentine
They/Them
Trans Students' Officer
I’m Dorian, your Trans Students' Officer! My role is geared towards supporting trans students on campus, representing their interests, listening to their issues and campaigning for their rights, both on campus and off
Course:
Liberal Arts with Theatre
Hometown:
Leek, North Staffordshire
Fun fact about me:
I'm a freelance games journalist and play an arguably detrimental amount of indie games in my free time
My role and what I hope to achieve this year:
I have many campaigns lined up, including amplifying trans voices on campus through speakers and conferences, tackling the university's systemic failures to support trans students, for instance through lacking wellbeing support, and working with other liberation officers to provide intersectional and comprehensive staff training. As trans people are disproportionately hurt by the Cost of Living crisis and similar concerns, I will also work with the SU and other officers on mitigating this for the entire student body.
