About the surgeries
Kevin holds regular open surgeries during the semester in the Union Bar. Students come to talk about anything and everything - society events they're organising, issues they're campaigning on, academic matters and more.
If you can't make it on any of the scheduled dates, you can contact Kevin directly or contact the Rector's Assessor, James Shield.
