Presidential Comment
I am beyond thrilled and deeply honored to have been elected as the new president of ASCS, representing FEMA students at the University of Malta. This year will undoubtedly be challenging, but I’m excited to work hard and overcome any obstacles that come our way. I’m confident that our hard work will lead to newer and bigger opportunities, not just for ASCS but for all FEMA students. My main goal is to build a strong community amongst our students, where everyone feels welcomed and supported. I want to be someone that people can easily approach to voice their concerns and ask for help, wherever and whenever they may need it. I am excited for the year ahead and can’t wait to see what we can achieve together
McAlister Azzopardi
The Third Eye wishes the new executive the best of luck for their term!
