Hi everyone,

We have some great news; little Chichester University has had more people sign the ‘Vote for Students’ pledge than any other University in the country.

This is absolutely amazing news, and really demonstrates to the rest of the country that the students at the University of Chichester are passionate about the fees not being increased.

In total 725 students have signed the pledge!

If you have yet to sign the pledge please go to www.voteforstudents.co.uk

I hope you all managed to get one and had a fantastic RAG Race.
looking forward to seeing the pictures!

Student Union representatives proposed a route change in the final week of January which was accepted as a possibility by the University estates department but was not initiated straight away. As a result of this a timetable has been published for the next 3 days (Wednesday 3rd – Friday 5th February). We are well aware that this timetable is pretty poor.
