    Getting to know Nyasha, next year's DUSA President

    Three days ago, Nyasha Mutembwa was elected the next DUSA President. Today, we sat down to talk to her about who she is and what her goals for her presidency are. From women in STEM to the DUSA Exec's connection to the student body, Ash describes her views on various very important issues. Correction: in this episode, the host states that Nicola Sturgeon was present in DUSA at one point this year. This is incorrect. A member of the Scottish government came to DUSA, but it was Humza Yousaf, the Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care.
