As I write this I’ve just got back from Enactus’ annual international market, where local businesses come to the uni and sell their fantastic products. It’s a fantastic atmosphere, and the kind of place you end up spending a lot more time than you’d planned. I thought I’d drop by for lunch and ended up […]

I’ve spent today drinking £1 smoothies, chatting about mental health, and eating free brownies. I decided to forgo the Tai Chi and do yoga in my room instead, but apart from that I’m getting into the swing of the uni’s wellbeing week. The point of this is that every part of the uni that aims […]

Last term I completed the Leicester Award, which is a course you can do through the uni to improve skills like working to deadlines, self reflection, public speaking, and giving presentations. One of the skills I chose to focus on then was time management, and so here I am, ready to impart my knowledge on […]

You might not know this, but February is LGBT History month and also the 50th anniversary of the partial decriminalisation of male homosexuality, which means a tonne of events going on up and down the country.

In case you thought this was a satirical Tab-esque article, it’s not. I’m sorry. This is a serious article. There almost definitely is a Tab one though so I think if you Google you’ll be able to find a list which includes something about the nicknames of campus buildings. It’s cheap. It’s so cheap. My […]

So Vegan and Vegetarian Soc had a stall at Refresher’s Fair (If you don’t know what this is, it’s like Fresher’s Fair at the beginning of term all over again) and it was the first time I’ve ever been on a society stall. I actually had a great time talking to everyone walking past. We […]

Christmas is really a time of year where nothing appeals more than sitting under a blanket filling your body with chocolate. But why not do that whilst also catching up on seminar reading?!?! Working over Christmas is horrible, but it’s something you have to do. Even if you have no January exams, going over […]
