I like it here but as a history student I often feel as if our course is seen as less than the other courses and we are constantly just dropped into whatever small classroom they can find us, in random buildings with very little warning- we may not be doctors but over half of us want to be the teachers of the future and it would be nice for that to be recognised- a cafe in livsey house would also be very great read more
