Jack Carter

Jack is a well-known sports figure on campus. Winning club of the year as president for Aber Snow he is known and loved by many Aberystwyth students. As the leading figure of one of Aber’s biggest sports club he established the club as one of the most successful and supported teams around campus.

The International Politics student is also famous for big nights out in Yokos, he is known as the ‘infamous Yoko’s troll’ that parties harder than all the freshers combined.

After the watersports vs Aber snow debacle, rumour has it that it now snows in Aber at Jack Carter’s command. Rumour says he attempted to utilise this by making it snow during superteams, giving the Aber Snow teams an unfair advantage. Vote for him below.

Zilia Pritchard

Chances are you have seen this glamorous and well loved lady around campus or dancing it off in Yoko’s. Spanish and Accounting second year Zilia is known as ‘Aber’s next top model’ because she is not only the tallest girl on campus, she is also fabulously covered in glitter or paint during nights out.

Zilia is popular for her wit, 24/7 entertainment and people frequently say about her: ‘Everybody knows her, she doesn’t need an explanation’. You have probably seen this girl dressed as a hot dog on a night out or surrounded by a group of chatty friends in the library. Now she has the chance to win the crown for BNOC of the year.

Sam Pritchard
