Congratulations on your offer to study at Durham, and a very warm welcome to Grey College! My name is Parth and I am the outgoing Middle Common Room (MCR) President, having been in the role from last October. The MCR is a community of post-graduates, as well as mature students, 4th year undergraduates and those on placements or years abroad. It is a really welcoming and supportive community, and a great way to make friends as you arrive in Durham. If you have any questions, please just drop me an email at greymcr.president@durham.ac.uk or direct message me on @greycollegemcr and I’ll do what I can to help.
