Hello everyone, my name is Kerem Elmacı, and I'm a 3rd year MBG student. I am a Student Department Representative candidate. I believe I am a suitable candidate because of my passion, and determination to make sure the voices of my department are heard in the Student Council, and my openness, accessibility, and approachability, which, in my opinion, are important for my duty of identifying the problems of my classmates and listening to them. My goals include: to create an open, and more regular relations between our esteemed academicians, and the students in our department, in which there is a feedback-based environment to discuss what is best for everyone involved, and how to improve the department as best as we can.

Herkese merhaba, ben Kerem Elmacı, 3. sınıf MBG öğrencisiyim. Bölümümüzdeki öğrencilerin Öğrenci Konseyi'ndeki sesi olmakta istekliyim ve öğrenciler olarak bizlerin fikirlerini, haklarını savunmakta kararlıyım. Ulaşılabilir biriyim ve fikirlere, geri bildirime açığım; arkadaşlarımın sıkıntılarını belirleme ve onları dinleme rolümde bu özelliklerimin çok önemli olduğunu düşünüyorum. Hedeflerimden biri; değerli akademisyenlerimiz ve öğrenciler olarak bizim aramızda düzenli ve daha açık bir iletişimin kurulabildiği bir köprü oluşturmak, böylece bölümümüzün hep gelişmesi ve problemlerin tartışılıp olası çözümlerin konuşulabileceği bir ortam yaratmak.

We can create a better department with your support. For this reason, I invite you all to vote on October 14.
