Exeter ‘Stands Together’ following EU referendum result

Exeter residents will ‘stand together’ in a colourful celebration of the European community this afternoon, in the aftermath of the EU Referendum result. Organised by the University’s own Lecturer in Hispanic Studies Dr Juan Garcia-Precedo, the event promises to provide a platform for speakers and debate, welcoming both Leave and Remain voters. He commented: “We all feel […]

“The philosophy of Tindy? Laughter!”

In his own words, Tindyebwa (Tindy) Agaba has seen “the very depths of hell.” As soon as they emerge from his mouth, the words jar. It feels incongruous to hear such scenes of “misery” and “gloom” evoked by this cheery young man who sits wrapped in a cosy fleece, against the backdrop of his tranquil, […]

#FashionWeekSoWhite

In the 1970s, the French designer was already pioneering mixed runways and four decades later, it seems we’re only just catching up to the […]

Review: How to be Single

The premise of Christian Ditter’s How to be Single reads like a Taylor Swift lyric: four girls – “happy, free, confused and lonely at the same time” – struggling to overcome or, rather, embrace singledom – “it’s miserable and magical”. Naturally, such a plotline risks becoming a giggly “sisters before misters” cliché – perfect fodder […]

BREAKING: Lord Myners of Truro announced as new Chancellor

Former Government Minister, ex-director of NatWest and former leader of some of the UK’s biggest companies – these are just a few of the credentials held by Lord Myners of Truro, the University of Exeter’s new Chancellor. The announcement comes after almost a year of student speculation, following Baroness Floella Benjamin’s confirmation that she would be stepping […]

Anti-Prevent talk under fire for hosting “Islamist” Moazzam Begg

Students and national organisations have condemned the decision to host CAGE Outreach Director and former Guantanamo Bay detainee Moazzam Begg as a guest speaker at a talk this evening due to concerns over his “track record of religious fundamentalism”. A cross-society collaboration between Socialist Students, Friends of Palestine, FemSoc and Islamic Society, Begg is due […]

£30k MACE rebrand under fire

Staff, students and SSLC members have hit out at the “unnecessary” new Accelerate module evaluation service, after the University spent £30,000 in a revamp of the MACE feedback system. Described as a “new tool for communication and gathering feedback from students” by the University website and launched in November last year, the new system was […]

As editors of student newspapers at all 24 Russell As editors of student newspapers at all 24 Russell Group universities, we stand united against the Russell Group statement which declared ‘no detriment’ or ‘safety net’ policies not to be ‘appropriate’ or ‘necessary’ for students at this time. 

Having listened to students at our universities, we are calling on the Russell Group to act compassionately and empathetically and to reconsider their stance on ‘no detriment’ politics for assessments this year. 

Students deserve to be listened to.
