Graduate Union

It’s not just the Students’ Union that’s new, today you get the first look at the brand new SU website!➡️cambridgesu.co.uk

A very warm welcome from your new Students’ Union, Cambridge SU 👋

Come to our campaign meeting on 1 July: Cambridge Colleges must transform hourly-paid supervisions into real, secure, fairly-paid jobs, with paid training. Proud to launch our #supervisionworkisrealwork campaign with @GraduateUnion ucu.cam.ac.uk/anti-casualisa…

If you're a student parent at #CambridgeUniversity, make sure you've filled this in! I've been working on it with @theUL and @GraduateUnion and it would be great to hear your thoughts on how to improve libraries for those with kids!

Over the last few weeks we've been sharing information to raise awareness about Obsessive Compulsive Disorder as part of our Campaigns Fund. You can read the first of our posts here, and find the rest on the GU Facebook: facebook.com/GraduateUnion/…

"Everyone can sympathise with universities... But the solutions must not rest solely on the shoulders of postgraduate and international students who have propped up their system for too long already." Read @PresidentGu Alessandro's article for @Wonkhe: wonkhe.com/blogs-sus/mast…
