"I came to Goldsmiths because I knew that it was a creative university with a politically vibrant atmosphere. Before I was a student I had a wide variety of jobs, from supermarkets to building sites to kitchens. The course I have just finished was brilliant and challenging and it has completely changed my outlook on life, not to mention my options. Now I will complete an MA, and hopefully after that a PhD. My eventual aim is to work in higher education.

For the last three years I have helped to run [smiths], the Student Union's student-led magazine. This was a great way to improve my CV, meet people and increase my writing and management skills, and I'll miss it very much."
