Alcohol

Drunk me is still me

Online Lifestyle Editor, Amy Butterworth, explores her relationship with alcohol and muses on drinking in moderation My relationship with alcohol has been an awfully long and winding passage, much comparable to the swirly straw you always hope to get with your piña colada (just me?) However, my alcohol experience now leaves me with a bitter […]

Battle of the Beverage

Dry January is a contested concept amongst my friends, as it garners many different opinions, ranging from respect and admiration to detest and abhorrence. I challenged myself to a month with no alcohol for no other reason but boredom; wagering with my conscience as to whether I had any self-restraint. Turns out, it was much […]

The student drinking problem

IN a 2016 survey conducted by The Tab, the University of Exeter ranked as number 16 in a list of the UK’s heaviest-drinking universities. This ranking may easily have changed by now, but there is still no disputing that out of roughly 150 universities across the UK, Exeter is certainly up there as having some […]

Taking on ‘Dry January’

Ultimately, we drink to socialise. Exeter, for example, has a culture of pre-drinking, going out to Fever, dancing, drinking and letting go. You might even end the night eating Dominoes with friends, sitting on the scratchy carpet of your student halls corridor, crying and laughing. Some of our best memories are made on nights out. […]

Alcohol improves memory!?

Planning on getting wasted this New Year Eve? You might want to squeeze in some revision for January exams just before doing so. In 2017, a study by researchers from Psychopharmacology and Addiction Research, University of Exeter found that alcohol facilitates memory for information learned just before consumption. This effect, termed ‘retrograde memory facilitation’ was […]

Fake News

We’ve all seen classic knock off products, perhaps you’ve been tempted to buy them? You wouldn’t be alone. 40% of people in a UK survey admitted to buying pirated films and music or purchasing counterfeit clothing and accessories. This is despite the fact that 90% of respondents in the same survey agreed that it was […]

You booze, you lose- Has Britain’s drinking culture gone too far?

“I learned it in England where indeed they are most potent in potting.” These words uttered in Othello convey the long and fabled relationship that we in this country have with alcohol. But even in his Elizabethan stupor, William Shakespeare couldn’t have anticipated the extent of Britain’s drinking culture today. This is something most freshers […]

The Stages of Recovering from a Rocky Night Out

We’ve all had it: that feeling of absolute horror and humiliation as you open your eyes the morning after a particularly heavy night out. Maybe you confessed your undying love to someone you really shouldn’t have, or had one-too-many and drunk cried all over Wednesday Night TP and most of the way home. Maybe you […]

What If: We drank like our parents?

You know those stories you hear from your parents about how good they were when they were teenagers? And how they don’t understand how you can consume so much vodka in one night, let alone the one of more bottles you get through a week? I always put that down to a little bit of […]

Terrace Monday’s Review

Monday night saw the launch of Exeter’s newest nightclub, The Terrace, located in the extension of the Guildhall. Designed primarily as a stylish restaurant and bar, by evening the first floor is converted into a “Club Lounge”. With the aim to introduce a chic venue to Exeter’s nightlife scene, the Terrace standardly has an over […]

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.
