The committee seeks to enhance the academic, emotional, spiritual, social and economic life of Vincentians studying at the St. Augustine Campus of the University of the West Indies. It also represents them on matters affecting their interest and general welfare, especially those of new students. They also strive to create an atmosphere where students can feel at home and enjoy the benefits of campus life.
The new committee hopes to function not only in Trinidad and Tobago, but also to enhance its visibility in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. They therefore will promote activities while students are at home. According to a release from VINSA, these activities will not only create an atmosphere where students can work together outside of the classroom, but also enable them to be more functional within their country.
