January update

Given that its only the 5th of January (though some of us have already been back at work for a few days) there hasn’t been that much happening in the office.   There will be soon hopefully, if I can motivate myself to get some work done… Anyway, here’s a quick oultine of what’s happening this semester.

E-mentoring

As always, if you would like to contact one of our student e-mentors, whether you are a prospective student wanting to know about the University, or a current student needing some advice on your coursework (or forthcoming exams) please get in touch via the website.

Photoblogging

As has been mentioned in the previous post I’m hoping to gt together a group of students to develop a photoblog, viewable through our website and focussing on the student experience at the University.  The main aims are to create an online community of students with similar interests and to provide a resource to prospective students wishing to study at Glasgow University.  If you’re a current student and you’re intrested in taking part then please get in touch, I’m hoping to get this started at the beginning of February.

Creative Writing

Our ever popular creative writing workshops start up again on January the 30th.  if you would like to participate I’m afraid we only have space on the 1-3pm slot, starting on the 30th.  These workshops are not credit bearing very informal and aim to provide the space and opportunity for current GU students to meet and be given the support to experiment and develop their work. They are not credit bearing.  For more info see our webpages http://www.gla.ac.uk/services/studentnetwork/creativewriting/  If we can’t accommodate you you could always try Liz Lochheads workshop which normally takes place on a thursday from 11am in room 303, 7 University Gardens. 

Blogging

Please check out our student blogs, links on the right hand side and let us know what you think.  Also, if you are a current studens and have a blog that you think is relevant let us know and we’ll put a link on our site. 

Cheers and Happy New Year.
