JCR Committee: Breeshey Harkin

2009–10: Sports and Societies Representative

Hey! I'm Breeshey (or Breesh as it's much easier to say/spell and doesn't lead to general bullying based on silly names from the Isle of Man). I am a second year Bio Anth student and am this year's Sports and Socs Rep on our JCR. I am generally to be found bouncing around the place in various sports kits or else sitting in the bar eating far too much chocolate. It is quite likely that you will get a phone call from me at some point where I will beg and plead you to drop whatever you are doing and magic yourself over to Leckhampton immediately to play some sport or other. I will probably offer my eternal friendship/love, ignore your excuses and qualm your doubts as to your sporting ability with so much cajoling and praise you will walk onto that lacrosse pitch feeling as if you could take on the Olympic champion (not actually sure lacrosse is in the Olympics but whatever) despite the only lacrosse you've ever seen played was in the pages of an Enid Blyton book when you were seven. Anyway....there will be a sports and societies fair during fresher's week where you can find out more about and sign up for the wide range of stuff Corpus has on offer. Also feel free to come find me around college or email me (bch25) if you have any questions or want to know more about/get involved in anything sporting, dramatic or musical!

2010–11: Green and Charities Officer

Green and Charities officer unsurprisingly deals with all things green and charitable around College, and generally aims to make it a more green and charitable place. Improving and increasing the recycling facilities around College is one of my top priorities, as well as holding fun fund raising events and liasing with Cambridge RAG to keep the College involved with such things as the Pyjama Pub Crawl and Blind Date. I will be working on increasing the College’s use of fairtrade products and generally badgering the lot of you to turn off the lights, wear a jumper and buy recycled paper etc etc :).
