There is a meeting tomorrow (Weds 23 Jan) at Frenchay campus in room 1L17 2pm for all students interested in applying to go to Virginia Commonwealth University next year. VCU is a lovely campus in Richmond, Virginia (the old capital of the Confederacy!). It's a dynamic university, Virginia is gorgeous and the student body diverse and friendly. Intellectually, it is so stimulating to be exposed to a new curriculum and academic culture, and we commend the experience for that alone.

Dear First Year English Students,

As promised I'm now handing this site over to you, the class on 2012, to use as you see fit. Please feel free to post any questions, comments or feedback about English modules and to chat to each other about English issues. You can also use the site to advertise events, English related or otherwise. As I said, it's now yours....
