Hey guys,

Hope everything is going great! Times flies by here in Lancaster. I cannot believe it is week 5 already, I have been so busy I just realised we are halfway through the term. There is quite a lot of work to be done: this is usually the time when I start my essays, thinking about which questions I am going to answer and how. I don’t have an essay for Economics, just another presentation on Education and student achievement. In my Africa module, I am torn between writing about the relationship between the instance of Structural Adjustment Programmes and the Politics of Aid in the continent, or about the role that contemporary China is playing in the development Sub-Saharan region. Finally, for my Continental Philosophy module, my essay will be about Nietzsche’s method in his Genealogy of Morals, I think I can write quite a lot about it.

At the same time, we recently had elections in the Philosophy Society and I got elected again to be on the exec. This means that I will have to help the new members coordinate the events and start thinking about some new things we could do. I have a couple of ideas that I’m really excited for, so I hope they work out in the end!

 

By the way, don’t forget we have another Visit Day this Saturday, I’d encourage you to come see Lancaster and get a taste of life around here (I just hope it won’t rain). See you guys around!
