With Easter right around the corner, I thought I’d take some time out of my morning to show you what our beautiful campus looks like in the Spring sunshine. One of the most unique thing about UoD’s campus is the diversity of the buildings. Walking past these buildings everyday, it becomes easy to take them for […]
Looming exams? Only a couple of weekends of freedom left before you end up living in the library? A few weeks ago a few fiends and I decided to get out of the city and spend a weekend away in the magical land of Crieff- a small Scottish town just over an hour outside of Dundee, […]
Dissertation? Done it mate. For those of you who are about to embark on the dissertation journey, here’s a few things I learned along the way: (1) Be proactive- start thinking of ideas as soon as possible because ultimately this will save you a lot of time and stress later on. (2) Know that you will […]
HELLO! With dissertation hand-in only a week away, I’ve decided to #tbt to happier times: DULS 2017 Law Ball. A few weeks ago Dundee University Law Society’s hosted its Annual Law Ball. This year, for the first time ever, this consisted of a two night stay at the MacDonald hotel in Peebles. And what a […]
Bonjour! Ola! Ciao! This week the university hosted it’s annual study aboard fair for all you wannabe jet-setters! I went along to represent my host university (Leiden) and begging our Erasmus Institutional Co-Ordinator (Pamela Brown) to let me go back (a resounding no but worth a shot). Feeling rather nostalgic I decided to share some of my […]

Ho ho ho! First semester is almost over (can you believe it) and it’s beginning look a lot like Christmas. So get yourself into town and check out what Dundee has to offer. Grab a crepe at the Christmas market and check out the lights at Caird Hall. I recommend a hot chocolate from Henry’s Coffee […]
For those of you who read my last post, you’ll remember I spoke about how exercise is scientifically proven to help de-stress and increase brain productivity (pretty helpful around exam time). However it dawned on me that going to the gym might be a relatively new thing to some or might even be something you’ve never done before. […]
It’s coming up for that dreaded time of year again: exams! In the next few weeks I guarantee we’re all going to wish we hadn’t missed that seminar after that night out or that we’d gone to the library and checked out more books before this point. But this happens to the best of us so don’t worry- it’s never […]
