LGBT postgrad group

Postby xs11 on Wed Aug 01, 2007 12:04 am

Hey there,
I have just started my PhD at St Andrews and was wondering where all the gay postgrads are...?! I got the impression that there is no gay postgrad/postdoc group, is there?
And if not, is there anyone who'd be interested to start one (for getting together once a month or so, pub nights, meeting new people, discussions, whatever people are interested in).
Looking forward to input and ideas from interested people,
Xenia

There is no postraduate-specific group for LGBT/curious people, but the LGBTsoc is far from being an undergraduate dominated society. We have had many postgrads and staff at our events - which are, incidentally, suitable and of interest to all in the St Andrews University community.

Hello!

There is no LGBT PG specific group but the society is very welcoming and there are a number of older students and staff members who attend. Have a look at www.st-andrews.ac.uk/~lgbtsoc

I'm beginning a postgrad in September (2007 graduate) and I know of another girl in a similar situation. I think we would both be interested in having some sort of get together – pub night? coffee? As St Andrews graduates we both know quite a few LGBT/curious PG students so I’m sure we could rustle up a fair bunch between us.

Look forward to hearing from you!

Hello!
That sounds good! We should get on that asap in September! (Or earlier? I'm around.) Looking forward to finally meeting :)
