Due to lockdown and a bad internet connection at home, I repeated a year. My new group of students are fresh out of school and full of enthusiasm. I like the choices we had last year for this year. I like all my professors who are highly informed and always happy to lend an ear for advice. The materials, books we look at are very current and options on which to focus great. There are plenty of cycle sheds to keep my bike dry and even a shower if I need it after work. I don't participate as much as I'd like to in the student union, but representatives often come to our classroom with news, encouraging us to join in, vote. In Professional Practice, one of my subjects, we have to write newsletters, feature articles or listicles. I'm not confident enough yet to pitch it to the commercial world, but can submit it for the University magazines. I had to think hard about downsides. This year we're a little cramped in some of our classrooms, and ventilation is not always easy. Perhaps free Covid tests would be good. My brother tells me they're still free in Canada. I'd also love offers of exchanges with European or International Universities. That I expect is possible for a masters, I'm still undergraduate. I've engaged with the Mental Health Services who were extremely helpful and the Careers and Enterprises are equally impeccable in these precarious times.

As I said in my previous praise, I nearly dropped out through frustration with all the lectures online during lockdown. A brief chat with head of department changed my mind and I was allowed to repeat the year. The professors, despite being constantly busy, are always at the end of an email for anything - an inspired idea or feelings of doubt. They make me feel secure that some way can be found to overcome the obstacle. The encouragement is always there. Especially this year when we know our marks will count.

CCCU has a very supportive and helpful staff team. The transition into university was made much smoother with an induction week that allowed me to really get to know my course mates and get familiar with the campus. For e.g, we went on a field trip to the beach to familiarise ourselves with surrounding areas, and was sent on a scavenger hunt around campus which really helped me to understand where everything was. The campus itself has a mix of nice modern buildings with a few run down areas, but they all work for the purpose they were made for so it doesn't really impact my experience. Facilities such as the library are extremely handy too, nice modern buildings.

My lecturers are very attentive for the most part, there are certain times where I've felt disengaged and struggled but when reported to my course rep I feel things have improved.

Quite expensive but that is the general consensus for most university halls. Had a few issues such as plumbing and heating but things are always fixed relatively quickly. 24/7 security makes me feel a lot more secure also.
