Vision
The Guild's vision is:
- To lead the student experience and be at the heart of student life;
- To work within the student movement to create positive change in the student community;
- We will act with and for our students in all that we do.
The Core Message is: "The University of Birmingham Guild of Students is the recognised students' union for over 28,000 students. The Guild represents and involves all students, under or postgraduate, home or international, on all campuses. The Guild brings students together on issues they care about to create positive change and achieve equality for and within its membership, through taking collective action."

Famous quotes containing the word vision:
“In clear weather the laziest may look across the Bay as far as Plymouth at a glance, or over the Atlantic as far as human vision reaches, merely raising his eyelids; or if he is too lazy to look after all, he can hardly help hearing the ceaseless dash and roar of the breakers. The restless ocean may at any moment cast up a whale or a wrecked vessel at your feet. All the reporters in the world, the most rapid stenographers, could not report the news it brings.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Redeem
The time. Redeem.
The unread vision in the higher dream
While jewelled unicorns draw by the gilded hearse.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“We might hypothetically possess ourselves of every technological resource on the North American continent, but as long as our language is inadequate, our vision remains formless, our thinking and feeling are still running in the old cycles, our process may be “revolutionary” but not transformative.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
