Key details:
End of June/start of July tends to be a 're-set' time so it's a perfect time to set up a GOOS paper station!
What is GOOS paper? Good On One Side. All the paper that doesn't have confidential information on it, that we don't need anymore. Instead of popping it directly in the recycling and then reaching for printer paper or a notepad when we need to make notes, consider starting a GOOS paper pile. See photo from 1WB for reference!
Tips for success:
A number of awards and prizes were presented at the recent Postgraduate Convocation on June 12, 2026. Congratulations to all of the recipients!
