This panel discussion happened during a livestream DUSA Media produced for the Sports Union Facebook page during the University's Varsity. The topic of the panel was "the role of sport in a university student's life" and in it were James Beatie (student of the University of Dundee), Dr Luís Calmeiro (lecturer of sport science at Abertay University) and Chris Kindlen (coach of the University of Dundee's basketball teams). The full livestream may be watched at https://www.facebook.com/sportsunion/videos.
The departing team behind JAM show Rough Riders, a harmless radio show despite the suspicious name, talks about what their time at JAM has been like.
Olivia Welch and André Costa, the management team of JAM for 2022/23, meet up for a chat about themselves and their plans for the radio.
Rebecca Sinclair, student of the University of Dundee and radio show host at JAM since 2018, will be leaving us very soon, so we met for a chat about what her time at JAM has been like.
Marcin Kielczewski, the current editor-in-chief of The Magdalen magazine, tells us what managing a magazine is like and the ups and downs of his year as editor-in-chief.
Dimitris Vidakis, the soon-to-be ex-President of DUSA, comes on to talk about what his Presidency has been like, its highs and low, what's next for him and what the future reserves for DUSA.
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.
The first episode of JAM Interviews features Cameron Irons and James Beattie, two of the several students behind the proposal for a pre-matriculation module aimed at future students of the University of Dundee for increasing awareness of topics such as racism, consent, gender-based violence, climate change and academic integrity. The two guests talk in depth about the proposal and the reasons behind it, and also answer the questions that have been raised about it.
