Australian Capital Territory Representative
Hugo Bennett
Hugo has been a part of the St Johns XXIII community at the Australian National University since 2023. During his time there he has thoroughly enjoyed meeting people from all over Australia and Singapore, making new friends and learning about their different experiences. Hugo has enjoyed working to find the balance between university expectations, social life and more broader necessities such as work and fitness. As he moves into his third year in college, Hugo is contributing to his community as the President, following an enjoyable year being a Senior Resident in 2024. He is excited to work with the Student Services team to continue building a safe, respectful, inclusive and fun community for everyone. Hugo feels his role as college President will encourage him to learn more about the nuances of what makes a diverse place such as a college thrive. Finally, Hugo also looks forward to working with the ANU community more broadly to further the experience of current and future students.
