A Blend of Non-EU Honeys
The repercussions of Brexit are endless, and here is another: pesticides illegal under EU regulations are now contaminating the honeys we consume. Unions of agricultural workers have lobbied the government, but now the Green party and environmental activists are doing the same back.
Degrees and disabilities
Only when coming to university did I discover I had a learning disability – no thanks to any seminar leaders or professors, but thanks to one of my best friends who has the same learning disability as I do, who recognised himself in me and urged me to seek a diagnosis. It affects a whole […]
What we’ve missed the most – summer edition
I have had a particularly long break from Exeter, as I spent this year on my Year Abroad in a tiny town in the east of Germany, not far from the Czech border. This extended time away from the glorious EX4 has indeed proved that absence makes the heart grow stronger – I’ve missed Exeter […]
Best and worst of Freshers
Aaron Loose When I moved down to Exeter as an underweight bookworm last year, armed with little but a Wilko’s crockery kit and the dream of becoming a dashing student of the Humanities, nobody ever warned me about homebrew vodka. Let me be the first to tell you: if your new flatmate offers you a […]
Rebranding religion
It’s Easter soon, finally. The one day of the year (or one of the days anyway) you can guiltlessly gorge on Lindt bunnies, get sick on Creme Eggs, and fill your pockets with Mini Eggs. It’s all about that chocolate, am I right? Google agrees with me. After typing in ‘Easter’ on Google images, I […]

At first, it feels full of promise, but once opened, you hear that dreaded gasp of air escaping, feel a sagging in your hands, and look inside to discover it contains only a disappointing handful of crisps. Or perhaps you went out and bought some mascara […]
Backpacking do’s and don’ts: advice you REALLY need to follow
So, your exams are over, the English rain in July is getting you down, and the summer is stretching out in front of you, not an internship or productive experience in sight…what to do? How about that long-awaited InterRailling trip? A European city-break with the housemates? Aside from the fact that really, you ought to […]
Free the nipple: a lesson in life-drawing
When I first considered modelling for a life-drawing class, I was pretty gung-ho about it all, and emailed into the University’s Art Society to get a slot. Some of my friends had done it, I pride myself on being body-positive, and who am I really, if I can’t practice what I preach? I got an […]
Cheers, Exeter! An International Experience
Coming to Exeter has been the best and worst decision of my life. Believe me. The University of Exeter. “So where is it in London?” “Is it good?” “Where does it rank in the UK?” – just a few of many weird, yet entertaining questions that my family from back home asked when I broke […]
