About Grey College SCR

The Senior Common Room is one of the communities that make up Grey College, together with the Middle Common Room (postgraduate students) and the Junior Common Room (undergraduate students). The Senior Common Room has as its designated base a comfortable room in the main building of Grey College, providing an attractive and relaxed environment for colleagues to meet and bring visitors.

Members of the SCR are drawn from the wider University, Grey College alumni and friends of the College. We are very open to approaches from new members. Members can attend SCR events and are also encouraged to become actively involved in various College functions, including:

• Formal Dinners and Guest Nights
• Student Enrichment Activities (Musical evenings, Drama Productions, Academic Talks etc.)
• The Grey Opportunities Programme
• Acting as student mentors

In addition, the SCR committee organises specific events, which include:

• Cheese and wine with conversation – these are convivial evenings with a short, informal presentation followed by discussion.
• Lecture events on topical themes
• Trips and visits

Facilities

The room is usually available for members' use at any time. Facilities available in the Common Room include tea and coffee-making facilities.

Members are requested to note that this room may be required by the College for use as a conference room out of term time and is also occasionally used by the college student support team. Notices will be posted outside the SCR on these occasions and, where possible, will be notified to members in advance.

The Executive Committee

The SCR Executive Committee is responsible for the general running of the SCR. In addition to the members below, the ex-officio members include the JCR President, MCR President and JCR Representatives Officer.
