Students have voted @SRAlbatross to be the 2015/16 Chair of the Student Radio Association at the organisation’s AGM.
According to the SRA’s AGM 2015 Agenda, Jonty Usborne and Sam Parker were the only two runners for the Chair position, however @SRAlbatross appears to have been voted via the Re-open Nominations option.
In @SRAlbatross’ opening statement, they promised “Krill, crabs, shrimps and lobsters at all SRA functions.”
They continued, “Albatrosses have been described as ‘the most legendary of all birds’ and intend to ensure that the next 12 months are exactly the same!”
When walking off the stage, AronChupa’s “I’m an Albatraoz” was played.
Current SRA Chair, Stu Manton, said of the result, “Oh god. This is about to get a whole load of real.”
@SRAlbatross will take up their position as Chair officially from 1st July 2015.
