Is that a Tory I spy lurking in the late night undergrowth waiting for SD results... well I never Steveo, I didn't know you cared... Quoting Steveo from 00:22, 10th Jun 2008 It's just like the maximum 10% per day that can be deducted for late submission. So few people are willing to take departments...
The outcome of the R.O.N. victory in Chattan last year was me: a senior student that really wanted the job, and was qualified to do it. As opposed to two candidates who weren't really fussed.
(Apologies for the delay in answering your questions guys, hecklings rather stole my life for the last couple of days.) I hope you won't mind if I try to answer the questions about 'apathetic' students and the two way process of engagement together, they're clearly about the same issue. First of all...
Thank you for the question, it's good to get some debate going! First of all I think it would be a mistake to assume that because representation is less 'sexy' than other things makes it is less important. There are many important services that we think of as being a bit dull but are glad that they'...
Just a quick introduction: My name is Lucy Green, I’m a fourth year Sustainable Development student and I’m from the North. I’m running for Director of Representation because I’m determined to show that ordinary students can make a real difference to the Association, and that the Association can mak...
Heya, I had dreads for about a year and crafted them myself (with the help of a friend). They're actually really simple to do, and don't listen to that bollocks about shaved heads and not washing - I washed mine regularly and when I cut them out I was left with a cute crop. Do be warned that they ta...
Voting RON isn't always a waste of time, McIntosh had a RON vote in their senior student election this year which led directly to the constitution being changed. Obviously the kind of campaign that led to these changes is more difficult ot orchestrate on a large scale, but maybe that just tells us t...
Hullo and welcome (pre-emptively) to Chattan! c-floor is the girls floor one up from the ground, most shared rooms are lovely and big , with high ceilings and good sized windows. You should be far enough away from the common areas to get some peace and quiet, without having to hike all the way to th...
Hi Sean, My name's Lucy and I'm the senior student in McIntosh next year, just wanted to congratulate you as the first fresher to find the Sinner, remind me to buy you a pint when you get here! In the meantime there's a thread on the McIntosh board http://www.thesinner.net/mb/Residences/mcintosh , w...
Hi guys, Just thought I would start a thread for you to ask any questions you have, and hopefully meet some of your fellow Chattan residents before you get here. --Lucy (Senior Student and general Chattan loiterer) Ps: Could freshers please note that the board admin doesn't allow room numbers from u...
Is anybody pleased that the University is taking steps towards addressing the environmental and community impacts of our actions, even if the details aren't perfect?
Philosophy seems particularly prone to disparity between exams and coursework, I sometimes feel like they're marking far more for originality and independent thought in the exam rather thank knowledge as such. I'm also not sure that the 50/50 split actually works out the way you'd think it would, I ...
Hullo my lovelies, hope you're enjoying your holidays as much as I am! It's getting towards that time of year when we serial volunteers have to start organising things for freshers week and I want some feedback from you! We want this freshers week to be so good that the little darlings don't know wh...
Even mere third years are sitting up waiting, although not particularly hopeful. Last I saw of my exam it was in a very big pile on a lecturers desk :S
