August Vita Student Monthly MVP and September Nominations
We're back with another Vita Student Monthly MVP, but with a twist - there are two winners this month! Shama "quacktheduckling" was nominated for her work in supporting the women & non-binary community at her university, the University of Manchester.
Here's a little more from Shama herself about what she gets up to:
"I am our current WNB Rep and Vice President. Our community has big plans to grow our WNB space 'Tea Party' in the upcoming year. Primarily, we are introducing biweekly socials with MMU Esports society where WNB gamers can meet up and interact. We prioritise this a lot as we are aware that WNB members make up a minority within our server and are working hard to increase the representation."
"We will be hosting LAN events mainly, in addition to more casual events where people can meet up and just have a conversation with people of similar interests. We find that in standard events it can be very male dominated and a lot of our WNB members can feel a bit intimidated, and we've received good feedback on these WNB events, with many people wanting to join!"
Our second Vita Student Monthly MVP is Matt "7bxd" Douglas from Lancaster University. Matt was nominated for his organisation of the annual 'Roses' event, as well as his wider support as the treasurer of the society.
We sat down with Matt to find out more:
If you personally know somebody who deserves recognition for their contributions to university esports and their community, then nominate them to win - nominations are open now!
The winner will receive an exclusive Vita MVP Discord role, as well as a Vita Student Monthly MVP pin.
Nominations will close on Sunday 11th October.
