Exeter’s estate agencies – help or horror?

Is it really worth joining a well-known estate agent and paying their membership fee? Or do these big estate agents catering to students have too many houses to control? Are private landlords better? And why do they treat us like children? One student shared with us a collection of short tales about some bad experiences […]

Students, millenials and the housing crisis: is resistance futile?

Having recently endured the stress of securing a house for third year, I found myself reflecting on the different ways the deepening shortage of quality affordable housing is impacting upon the millennial generation. Studying at an elite university in one of the wealthiest parts of the country, it is all too easy to forget that […]

Meal deal mayhem

Once every month or so, numerous articles will slither around the internet telling millennials to stop doing something: stop ruining diamonds, stop ruining brunch, stop sacrificing your mental and emotional wellbeing in order to reach standards of social involvement that you’ve set yourself, stop ruining jeans. All that stuff us millennials love doing. Recently, the […]

The joy of house hunting

It’s everyone’s favourite time of year again. No, not Christmas, it’s time to frantically call every estate agent in town out of the fear of being homeless or being stuck in a damp hell-hole 40 minutes away from campus. Oh, the joy. Perhaps the most frustrating thing about house-hunting, aside from the paperwork, the fear […]

The housing nightmare we are all facing

t’s happened again. IWhile my friends in London chill out and enjoy the dawning of winter, here we are – frantically searching for houses and scrambling for viewings like there’s no tomorrow. It’s natural to think that we should be looking for next year’s houses… Next year? Unfortunately, here at Exeter Uni, we are all fierce […]

Fit for a Kingfsher?

Exeter students were forced to spend the start of the year at a hotel after their rooms weren’t ready in time – and have told Exeposé the University was “unhelpful” during their struggle to find accommodation. 120 students meant to be moving into the Kingfisher Studios, owned by national company Downing Students, had to be placed […]

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.
