5 reasons why I desperately want all of the students to come back.

1. King’s is a lonely place without the hustle bustle of students. I know that there are postgraduates hiding away in their research caverns somewhere – but as this is thesis/dissertation writing up time, it’s probably best that I don’t go bothering you all.
2. I’m not handing over to anyone, and this month is set aside for handing over to people. I’ve enjoyed doing work experience at Allen Edwards Primary School, but that was weeks ago now.
3. Some of the College staff have gone on holiday, and rightly so, it’s been a tough year – but this does mean that lobbying might have to go on hold for a while, though. I am having a meeting next week about graduate stipends but it’s definitely slowed down here.
4. I’ve been planning and planning and planning and now I just want to get started. I’ve got a plan for liberation, a plan for the Aldwych Group (of which I’m chair), a plan for representation, a plan to quash bad use of TurnitinUK – I just need some students to join in and it’ll all fall into place. But there aren’t many (see point 1).
5. I’ve run out of friends. They’ve all graduated, or finished their years as sabbaticals or moved back home for the Summer. Or they’re on electives.

Come back students,

Emilie
