I also studied at Lancaster for my undergraduate degree, which was in International Relations and Religious Diversity. So, I\u2019ve been here a while&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri\">This year I will be mentoring any RS students starting their degree here in Sept 2019. So, keep an eye on this blog. Every week or so I will be posting a short post about what it is like to be an undergraduate student in the PPR department like, what you might want to bring with you, what a lecture is, and what is Fresher\u2019s Week like! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri\">I would also like to introduce our mascot, Lumpy!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri\">As you can probably tell from his name, Lumpy is a Heffalump teddy\u2026 <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri\">This year he will be following me around, helping me document what university life is like. So, keep an eye out for him around social media and open days, he is rather mischievous! He mostly hangs out on my twitter (@kenarchy97) but will also feature on this blog and our Instagram account which will be coming soon!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri\">So yeah, that is us. I am really looking forward to getting to know you all and to help you prepare for coming to Lancaster!! Next week, I\u2019ll be writing a short blog about what my first week at Lancaster university was like. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri\">Best wishes!! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri\">Kenneth and Lumpy <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Calibri\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi Everybody!
