Meet Your AGENTS
Agents work as a team to ensure minority communities are represented and aim to make the College accessible to everyone.

PLACEMENT AGENT
Hello! My name is Grace and I'm a fourth year Combined Social Sciences student who last year completed a placement year. This year I hope to organise events with organisations who offer placement years, provide support to students seeking a placement year and hope to create a community of students returning to university after their placement year. I'm very much looking forward to doing the role next year and meeting students maybe thinking about doing a placement year!

BEN BURKE - ENVIRONMENTAL AGENT
As the Environmental Agent and President of the John Snow Environmental Association, I aim to ensure our college protects and nurtures the environment around Durham, as best as possible.
