FEATURES: An Indian adventure for a Queen’s student

An exchange programme for the last 4 years has been running at Queen’s university called the PMI-2: Strategic Alliances and Partnerships scheme. Its aim is to take a group of students to either India or China for academic and cultural exchange, and in the process take part in university life and complete some research. I’m a 24 year old student from Wales just waiting to graduate from a full-time Masters in Social and Community Development, and over the summer I spent a month, along with four other students and a member of Queen’s academic staff, in the Indian southern state of Andhra Pradesh and the city of Hyderabad.

REVIEW: Ed Sheeran +

They say range is a wonderful quality; it shows depth and the willingness to adapt, it suggests an open mind and a refusal to be ‘boxed in’. Why didn’t someone tell Ed?
