Organised by Seb Wilkes (MCR 3rd year)
Come and listen our college community, both MCR and SCR, discuss their latest work. The Queen’s College Symposium, or QCS, happens twice a term. The standard format is to have two speakers, with 30 minutes each including questions from the audience. One of my manifesto pledges was to hold more thematic evenings – do keep an eye out! QCS is held in The Shulman Auditorium. Afterwards, there is a Free dinner in the SCR! Though please make sure you book on promptly. The schedule for the year 23/24 is still being worked on, but here is what was in the calendar last year.
