Laura Lehany - B&G has an amazing feeling of community spirit
which is what I like most about the place.
I love the fact that so many of the residents are willing to jump in
and give anything a go, be it sport, debating or theatre.
My favourite thing to do at college is to chill in the kitchens
because they're always flooded with people.
|
Alison Musgrove - Hi my name is Alison and I'm a third year
Economics/Asian Studies student majoring in Mandarin and security studies.
I've been at B&G for three years now and love the social aspects of
living at college.
My favourite things about B&G are putting on the redbacks jersey for
college sporting teams and socialising in the kitchen.

Nivarith Nair - Big shoutout to all my fellow Redbacks!
I'm in my second year doing a Bachelor of Arts majoring
in International Relations and Contemporary Asian socieities.
I proudly hail from sunny Singapore and I like Amanda
sometimes dress as I was still living near the equator.
I was the first year International Rep in 2008. This place
has become a second home and I liken it to an extended family.
Really enjoy the community spirit and easy going atmosphere.
Believe there's so much to learn from the collective wisdom and
experiences of such a diverse group of people. I love sports
(am especially fanatical about football and Liverpool), good company,
travelling,
music, Kerala, cloud watching, cooking(not really), the great outdoors and
doing obscure essays.
Oh and I'm sometimes mistaken for my mischievious twin Nivi so don't be
deceived.
Peaceout

a random resident is definitely the highlight for me in this place
that I have fondly come to think of as my second home!
