Barnsley and Oldham join Forces

University Campus Barnsley Campus Committee visits UCO Campus Committee.
However unlikely it may sound, UCB Campus Committee faced their fears and left Yorkshire and headed over to Oldham to meet up with their fellow elected members of the Oldham Campus Committee.
This was the first such meeting of its kind between the campuses and a great opportunity to meet each other and have a tour around the Oldham Campus. It was fantastic to form allegiances with the Campuses and to share ideas and suggestions to build a better Campus Committee.

The meeting proved enlightening, especially as Barnsley Campus Committee could see the SU in operation at Oldham and how this differed from their Campus. They were surprised by the smallness of the SU Pod in the Library, but saw the benefit of it being close to the student population although not private! They loved the bright colours and open aspect of the Student Lounge and saw the potential with the Multi-Media Building and its break out sections.
Sometimes it’s worth seeing things with fresh eyes . . . as they say!

Now it’s Oldham’s turn to go to Barnsley and see how their Campus differs from Oldham.
