Hope you're all settling in well, and have enjoyed the term's events so far. There was certainly some lively debate in Butterbeer & Banter (and plenty of off-topic discussions, as usual), and I hear the quiz received some patronage too. We'll be running events (online) throughout the rest of the term as well, and crucially we're planning on properly kicking off our house point system, so keep your eyes out for our internet owls (aka emails). But for now, why not take a minute to get to know another of our committee members...
Name: Kym Yarwood
Committee Position(s): Secretary
Year: 2020
