In Support of the Chaplaincy - David McNee, President of Southampton University Christian Union and Current Student

I consider it my good fortune that I have been able to get to know Simon Stevens in my time at Southampton University.

I have been able to get to know him in his more professional role where he has been a great aid and advisor on several occasions and, typical to the way Simon works, at the same time been able to get to know him as a friend and brother in Christ.

It is thus on two levels that i appeal against this decision to remove Simon from the University of Southampton:

1) For the great aid he (and the Chaplaincy) is to us and many other societies at the University

2) For the fact that I do not wish for a man whom i consider a good friend, valued aid and advisor, and Brother in Christ to be removed from his place here at the University.
