#LoveSUs – A day to appreciate your SU
Monday was #LoveSUs Day, where people were tweeting in the things that they love about their Students’ Unions across the UK in response to the government’s Higher Education green paper that announced a consultation on increasing the transparency and accountability of students’ unions. The day was a great chance to join together with students and alumni to celebrate the positive impact of students’ unions across the country.
Here is a summary of some of the tweets we received:
My ol' stomping ground, @YourSUSU, totally changed my life. So many friends, new skills, confidence and opportunities #LoveSUs

I love my Student Union because it's one of the most student-led in the country! #LoveSUs @yoursusu

The #LoveSUs hashtag was trending across the UK…
Love that #LoveSUs is trending. There is not a job I've had since uni that experience @YourSUSU hasn't been key
