Committee – St Anne's College MCR

The MCR committee is elected annually during the latter part of Michaelmas Term. The officers of the current MCR committee are shown below, along with their contact details.

Your MCR committee are here to work hard to maintain and improve the graduate experience here in St. Anne’s, within the MCR and via liaison with St. Anne’s College. They are responsible for organising all kinds of events (from social events to academic discussion groups to sports); for maintaining MCR facilities such as the common room, IT room, and tea and coffee; for supporting academic work; and for student welfare.

Importantly, members of the MCR committee participate in college’s meetings (concerning college regulations, academic affairs, accommodation, college-maintained facilities, and welfare) and make suggestions to them that we believe will cater to your needs. If you have any suggestions, concerns, questions, or criticisms – whether it be personal to you or more general, and whether it be with regard to social, academic, domestic, or any other aspect of MCR life at St. Anne’s – please do not hesitate to contact relevant committee members. Alternatively, you can bring forward any issues or proposals you have to one of our regular MCR meetings.
