COLLEGE FORUM
College Forum is a meeting consisting of JCR and MCR representatives, usually J/MCR presidents. This is an opportunity for J/MCRs to connect and meet each-other, talk about issues in their respective colleges, share ideas and good practice, and receive support from Cambridge SU. This forum is co-chaired by the Cambridge SU Presidents but is led by the J/MCRs and their agenda. College Forum meets at least 3 times in the Michaelmas and Lent terms, and at least once in the Easter term. There will also be social opportunities after the forum to meet fellow student representatives more informally. To submit agenda items or receive support please contact:
