COLUMN: The Auld Wan – When she walks she moves so fine…like a flamingo
Tuesday, July 13th, 2010
The Manfred Mann song came to mind as I went down past the Lanyon Building one day last week at lunchtime on an errand. The hundreds of graduands, and wives and girlfriends thereof, stalking across the lawns and pavements in their 10 centimetre heels (I’m a bit of SI unit man myself) in their multicoloured best – while the men marched around awkwardly in the suits they hope will impress at those first interviews.

NEWS: Students must pay in order to graduate
Wednesday, June 30th, 2010
As final year students at Queen’s prepare to graduate this summer, many are displeased with the expensive graduation fees. Students must pay £55 in order to graduate. This sum covers the cost of the student’s ticket, gown and hood. A diploma in nursing costs £60 due to the inclusion of the official nursing badge. Students who wish to graduate in absentia must pay £10. Graduates are also expected to pay a further £5 for their degree transcript.
