Junior Common Room Committee
Fourteen students are elected annually to represent their peers within the hall and to organise events. This committee runs the JCR, puts on events and uses JCR fees to fund events for the students. The three major annual events organised by the JCR committee are the Summer Ball, Freshers Week, and RAGs (Raise and Give) Week, although social events continue throughout the year. The committee has a written constitution which governs its relations with the student population and governance within the committee.

“Virginity is now a mere preamble or waiting room to be got out of as soon as possible; it is without significance. Old age is similarly a waiting room, where you go after life’s over and wait for cancer or a stroke. The years before and after the menstrual years are vestigial: the only meaningful condition left to women is that of fruitfulness.”
—Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)
“Any committee that is the slightest use is composed of people who are too busy to want to sit on it for a second longer than they have to.”
—Katharine Whitehorn (b. 1926)
