  • A Working Rector for the University of Glasgow

    I’m honoured to have been nominated as one of the candidates to be Rector of the University of Glasgow.

    If elected, I would serve as a working Rector who lives within walking distance of the University in order to serve the student body.

    The students of the ancient universities in Scotland have the power to elect a rector who chairs the University Court – the highest decision making body in the University. It is essential that students are represented by someone on that body who knows how universities work, has experience of working for and with students and who is able to allow the university to flourish by putting students first.

    I know universities well, having worked with student sabbatical officers and a whole range of welfare staff. Having a range of campaign skills that I’ve learned through campaigning for gay marriage and for human rights generally, I hope that I would be able to work with students for a better university experience.

    More details and a manifesto over on the campaign page.

    Thank you for this sermon. It further clarified several things that I feel strongly about. I too pray that we no longer hear angry drums but canticles of truth, love and peace.

    I’m back. Here we go again. For those so desperate to know what I did on my holidays, I went to Dalmally and then Peebles to see some friends and St Andrews to see my parents and my niece. And yes, I had a lovely time. So now you know. No need to inquire further.

    To St Margaret’s Church, Newlands yesterday afternoon for a concert. (Or as they advertise it on the wall outside, the Scottish Episcopal Church of St Margarets, whoever St Margarets was). The concert was very good. Our own Mr Oliver Rundell at the piano, with Mr Alex South on clarinet, and Ms Sonia Cromarty on cello…
