Welcome to Lonsdale College As Principal of Lonsdale College, I would like to welcome you to Lonsdale. Lancaster is one of only a handful of collegiate universities in the country, the others being Cambridge, Durham, Oxford and York (pretty decent company!). Lonsdale College is the best college here at Lancaster (maybe I'm biased!) and over your time here we are going to prove that to you. You are fortunate enough to be a member of one of the founding colleges and also one of the newest ones. In 2004 the College moved to its new site in Alexandra Park. Each of our 776 bed-study rooms is en-suite and has access to a shared kitchen and you can also take advantage of the study and recreational facilities in Lonsdale House. These facilities include a 'quiet' study room to work in, a computer room to get those essays finished, a Junior Common Room to relax and chill, a Senior Common Room for meetings and for the senior members to relax and the off-campus kitchen. And of course ‘The Mane Place’, the best bar on campus! The things that make Lonsdale special are its spirit, its traditions and of course, most important of all – you! Hopefully you will soon be proud to be a ‘Lonsdalion’. There is a full programme of intercollege competitions, virtually all various indoor pastimes such as darts and pool and more cerebral activities such as the debating society. If you are not of a competitive nature you can simply sit back smugly knowing you have the best facilities on campus. Academically we are one of the most successful colleges on campus; yes, study is involved at university, and the College will do all it can to help you to develop to your maximum potential. In first year you will be appointed a College Advisor for your time here in Lonsdale. These are senior members of the university who have been here for a while and understand how the system works. They are here to give you any help and advice you may need. There are also undergraduate ‘kitchen reps’ (current Lonsdale students) who will also be around. They have been through it all and know exactly what you are going through. The kitchen representatives are vital to the system so be nice to them – who knows you could be one next year! I am sure that you are going to have a fantastic time here at Lancaster and especially here in Lonsdale College – I hope that you will help us live up to our motto ‘Simply the Best’. We’re proud to have you and hope you will be proud to be one of us. Dr Keith Davidson Principal E-Mail k.davidson@lancaster.ac.uk Tel (01524) (5)93728 3
