The SU has published its statement on the upcoming strike action this Tuesday, which is available to view

We are pleased to announce that, following direct pressure exerted by the SU during the housing crisis at the start of
the year, the University and Warwick Accommodation will be making an extra 200 rooms available on campus next year specifically for Postgrad
students. Thanks to everyone who took the time to contact us with their experiences regarding this – hopefully with sustained pressure, we
can help prevent a similar situation from arising again!

PG Officer Lucy Gill will be publishing a new blog with the latest developments on this issue in the
coming days – keep checking back for updates!

A website by the name of Ratemash has been uploading photos from students' Facebook profiles without their consent and
exhibiting them for users to rate their "hotness", categorised by University. Cat Turhan has written a blog post on this issue – please take a moment to read it if
you think you might be affected by this and would like your pictures to be removed.
