Only 1 day to go!! Still time to sign up for the virtual Open Days, where you’ll be able to chat to our lovely open day helper Betsy... Hi I'm Betsy and I study law with legal studies in Europe.

Hi my name is Amy and I’m a third year historian at Magdalen, originally from Nottingham. During my time here I’ve been particularly active with student Welfare as the colleges welfare officer.

Oxford’s latest Admissions report for 2017-2019

Oxford’s latest Admissions report for 2017-2019 is now available on the university website. Some continued improvement in diversity this year for the university as a whole with improved numbers for socioeconomic progression, BAME, state school balance and gender. In the last report Magdalen unfortunately came second from bottom in almost every category- we are now very much up from that, even if we still have a lot of work to do! (It is important to bear in mind that this report shows the sum of all three year groups currently in colleges. Our data for the incoming year group is available through the college website, as linked on this page, and shows significant improvements on this.)
In other, lighter, news History and politics is now officially the most competitive humanities course per place, with Economics and Management as the most competitive STEM subject. Oriel is the college with the most men in Oxford and Queens is the most female college around! .

A number of motions will be being brought at the GM on Sunday in relation to the injustice that continues within Oxford today and what the JCR can, and is going to, do about it. If anyone has ideas about what steps we can take as a community to ensure that we are doing our utmost to reduce the inequality within our society, please submit motions, co me to this GM and have your voice heard.🖤🖤

We would like to express our solidarity as a JCR with our BAME students. Oxford is a place of education but we do not always focus on the things that everyone needs to learn. You can start with this powerful article by our very own Ti (@ti__tties ): https://cherwell.org/2020/05/31/anti-blackness-a-performative-business/ For POC in Magdalen who are looking for a safe community space to process their feelings at the moment our wonderful rep @amber.syed has set up a Facebook group ‘Magdalen JCR Racial and Ethnic Minorities’ here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/550575822126514/?ref=share Here are just a few of the resources you can use to make a difference: https://minnesotafreedomfund.org/donate https://secure.givelively.org/donate/the-bail-project https://act.colorofchange.org/sign/justiceforfloyd_george_floyd_minneapolis #blackouttuesday

Introducing the committee... Just in time for Prid

Introducing the committee...
Just in time for Pride it’s our LGBTQ+ trustee Bailey!🏳️‍🌈 Hi, I’m Bailey (he/him), a first year HisPol student from Lincolnshire, and I’m the JCR’s LGBTQ+ Trustee. I work with the MCR Trustee and our JCR LGBTQ+ Officer, Heather, to represent and support anyone in college who identifies as LGBTQ+. We also run various events throughout the year including weekly Tuesgay drinks, the annual Oscar Wilde Dinner, and events for History and Pride months! I’m a typical bi theatre kid, so you’ll catch me begging people to come see a play or being fawned over by my countless fans in Plush (the LGBTQ+ club in Oxford).

Introducing the committee... Our Women’s rep Sop

Introducing the committee...
Our Women’s rep Sophie! Hi, I’m Sophie! I’m a second-year Chemistry student and the JCR Women’s Officer. I support a wonderful community of women at Magdalen, for anyone whose identity includes female. I organise Gender Equali-Teas, share information on women-related events and gender activism to the JCR, and work to ensure that all women at Magdalen are supported, including those facing the consequences of violence, harassment, discrimination or period poverty. In my spare time, I can normally be found drinking coffee with friends, running an event for a university society, or heading to a gig down the road.

Introducing the committee... Our OKB (Old Kitchen

Introducing the committee...
Our OKB (Old Kitchen Bar) rep, Jacob! Hi, I’m Jacob, a third-year physicist from Perth in Scotland. As the JCR’s OKB rep I am responsible for organising bi-weekly bar events known as “Magdalen Mondays”, these include karaoke and magic nights. In addition to this, I also represent the student body by communicating its views on the development of food and bar services to college. I can normally be found around the Iffley sports centre where I coach the university swimming team and, of course, in the college bar itself.

Introducing the Committee...The voice behind the ‘gram.
It’s me! I’m Eve our college’s Access and Admission rep... and clearly the only committee member to not have photos of themselves in lovely Oxford scenery. I’m in charge of Magdalen’s outreach which means working with schools across Nottingham (where I’m from!) South Yorkshire and Westminster to help students who might apply to Oxford and organise our lovely college ambassadors. It’s basically my job to show people that Magdalen is a community for everyone. I also run our Open Days and interview periods so you’re likely to bump into me if you’re thinking of applying! In my free time I can be found beggin people to feature on the college insta xx

If you would like them to cover a specific theme for future Q&As, you can also make a request in the form mentioned above.
We are looking forward to seeing you on Saturday!
