Exam season means one thing: our brains need fuel 📚🌮

This week, the some of our human rights students swapped the library for Alfonso and Andrea’s kitchen, where they were treated to homemade chilaquiles and a taste of Mexico!

Our students love the diversity of LSE Sociology, where learning happens as much around a brunch table as it does in a seminar room! Finding community, sharing cultures, and making time for each other is how our students help each other through exam season 🫶

🎉 We’re delighted to have been ranked third for Sociology in the UK in the 2027  rankings! LSE also ranked top in London...

From the library straight to the alpacas 🦙📚

In the middle of exam season, LSE’s Centre Building Plaza turned into the ultimate study-break spot thanks to and their wellbeing alpacas.

Between deadlines, revision sessions, and endless hours in the library, a few moments spent feeding and petting these furry visitors brought a surprising sense of calm, and a reminder that university life is also about joy, community, and unexpected moments like this.

Sometimes, the best way to handle exams is simply to step outside for a moment. ✨
