Hello everyone,
Welcome back to Selwyn, and welcome to all the new freshers! I hope this year has started off well for everyone.
I'm Katy, a third year Law student and the current Communications Officer for the Selwyn JCR. My responsibilities involve taking minutes in meetings, helping to run the Selwyn JCR Instagram (@selwyn_jcr) and sending out a weekly email bulletin called Selwinfo. This includes any upcoming events and notices of things happening in college or around the university.
If you have anything you would like included in the next Selwinfo, please email me at jcrcommunications@sel.cam.ac.uk with the text that you want announced.
Please see the Selwyn JCR website for more details on the JCR including minutes from past meetings, a 'Meet the JCR Committee section' and all the manifestos of current and past officers (https://www.selwynjcr.org). I will link the minutes to the last JCR committee meeting in all the Selwinfos (our first meeting of this term is tomorrow).
