College Guide 12-13

Welcome!
As Principal of the College it is my pleasure to welcome you to Cartmel
College.
This coming year is the eighth year of being located in Alexandra Park, a
‘village’ we share with two other Colleges: Lonsdale and Graduate. The
College aims to provide you with a supportive environment for your studies
and a place where you can meet people and socialise. The social centre of
the College is Barker House Farm which contains a food court, a bar, study
areas and the Junior Common Room.
You are fortunate to be a member of a College which has an excellent JCR
and College Officers who are second to none in a College System which has
many excellent officers. You will find details of them and their roles within the
College in this Handbook. My job as Principal is to try and give direction and,
of course, take general responsibility for the welfare of the College and its
members.
I do so hope that your time at
Lancaster and at Cartmel will
prove to be an experience which
you will remember, with fondness,
for the rest of your life. Certainly,
we will do all that we can to make
this so.
Welcome once again. Remember
this is your College and while this
is not a license to do anything you
please, it is a recognition that the
spirit of a College resides in its
members – you and your fellow
Cartmelians.
