Committee

LGBTSoc is run by an elected committee of Oxford University students. Although they all have their defined roles within the committee, you will see all of them running the bar at weekly drinks and all of them are friendly and willing to be contacted about anything LGBT-related! Click on their individual names to load the individual contact forms.

Committee positions last three terms, and there are two main election periods each year, so during your time in Oxford you will almost definitely see some changeover, and have a chance to run for a position yourself.

President
Annis Stead - until June 2011
Here to make sure everything runs smoothly and take responsibility for everyone's mistakes. In charge of making sure events happen, rooms get booked, committee members turn up, the library doesn't get lost, and no-one gets offended, as well as sending out weekly emails to let y'all know what's going on.

Secretary
Dave Simons - until December 2010
The Secretary works with the president keeping the committee in check - primary duties are keeping minutes at committee meetings and co-ordinating with the University authorities to make sure we do everything by the book.

Treasurer
Rachel Clement - until June 2011
The Treasurer has the (un)enviable job of recording the society's accounts and watching out that we don't run out of money.

Computing officer & Webmaster
Jake Fraser - until June 2011
The Webmaster designs and updates LGBTSoc's website, which you are looking at right now. The Computing officer maintains the members mailing lists and the committee email addresses. They are normally the same person.

Graduate reps

Beth Evans - until December 2010
The Trans rep also helps to run the Queer Parenting scheme for freshers in Michaelmas term, and the rest of the year is here to provide advice and support for LGBT students. The Trans rep also ensures that trans, genderqueer, and intersex students are not ignored.

Bisexuality reps
