Bev Smit

Bev started studying at the Open University around 2011, and finally graduated in English Literature in 2020. Studying had it's ups and downs for her. One minute she had no obligations, the next, she found herself a carer for her parents and then for her aunt and uncle. So she knows how it feels to defer and even to fail a module. Now she has decided to study for a BA in History, and is in her second year.

Bev is an active member of the Students Association. She holds meet ups and social online events. Her role as Faculty rep ended in July, and now she is a Central Committee Rep and sits on BoS and Teaching Committee for Arts and Social Sciences.

She lives with her angst ridden rescue mongrel dog Bert who usually appears at online events but he forces her to do her 10,000 steps a day which keeps her fit(ish) and in her spare time she also volunteers at her local library.
