Looking forward to meeting the Cambridge delegation: @rosoldcusu @FlickOsborn @jhleewrite CUSU Online #AldwychGroup

At University of Manchester Students’ Union for my last Aldwych Group. I'm handing over to WSU's @BenSundell and @LucyGill09! #aldwych

Aldwych Group - How can we make Sabb positions relevant for PGT students when they have dissertations for the first 3 months of the job?

Discussion on Postgraduate issues led by Jason Smith of Leeds University Union. SUs should include PGs, rather than create seperate activities

Aldwych Group SUs shouldn't try to engage Postgraduate students in one-off events, but should change activities to accommodate them first.

Postgraduates are not an homogenous group.Great differences between undergraduates progressing within an institution vs a mature new student

SUs need to think how Postgraduate students fit into the culture - identify the specific diversity of the membership and provide for them...

Interesting scheme that the University of Manchester run through @SchoolGovNet (SGOSS) to place academics in state schools The University of Manchester News #UoM

Really enjoying the Aldwych Group handover. Great sessions on academic support, post-grad engagement & the social responsibility of unis.

Julian Skyrme (Director of Social Responsibility, University of Manchester) currently presenting his thoughts to the Aldwych Group #Aldwych

Really engaging presentation to, and discussion with Aldwych Group this afternoon on 'What are Universities for?' #Aldwych

I've just seen the words 'Grade Point Average' on an Aldwych Group #Aldwych handout. This may not go well.

Humanities don't use full mark range, converting to GPA not possible. Science subjects need a greater no. of distinguishing marking points

Discussion around HE Achievement Records - welcomed by students and institutions alike, but people need to be aware of its existence earlier

The Aldwych Group has just voted to create a reserved Co-Chair position for women at the handover meeting

Looking forward to our Committee elections this morning, some fantastic new Officers here so step up & become more involved people! #Aldwych
