"Sally Colette Hunt" is a British trade union leader, the General Secretary of the University and College Union (UCU).

Born in 1965 in Germany, where her father was teaching in a British forces school, Hunt was educated at a comprehensive school in Chippenham, Wiltshire. She studied international relations at the University of Sussex from 1983 until 1987, serving as vice-president of the students' union.

After leaving university, she worked as a nightclub bouncer, a bookshop assistant, and for two building society staff associations before joining the Association of University Teachers.

Hunt was the last General Secretary of the Association of University Teachers (AUT), having held that post since 2002. On 1 June 2006 the AUT merged with the National Association of Teachers in Further and Higher Education (NATFHE) to form the UCU.

On campuses and in the areas outside each and every university entrance there are solid picket lines and no one is going in. Students have decided to show their support by not going in.
