JUNIOR COMMON ROOM
THE COMMITTEE
The JCR has a committee made up of students, who are all here to help you!
The Executive
Hi! I’m Orla (she/her), a second-year historian from London. As Treasurer, I’m in charge of allocating and managing the JCR’s budget. This money is used to better all aspects of student life, from funding societies and sports clubs to providing free period products in the bathrooms in college. As JCR members, you’ll get a say in how this money is spent at JCR meetings! I’ll also be the one leading the yearly rent discussions with college alongside Rob.
One of my most important jobs is to be a friendly face around college, to help you and answer any questions you may have about the JCR or life at Univ. Please feel free to reach out to jcr.treasurer@univ.ox.ac.uk or orla.hutchinson@univ.ox.ac.uk with any questions!
Orla Hutchinson
she/her
VP/Treasurer
My name is Robert, I’m a second-year historian from Edinburgh, and I’m the JCR President this year.
My job is to make sure that the undergraduates are represented to college, and communicating our needs to the staff is a key part of improving college life for everyone. I also work with the whole JCR Committee, who run events and make sure everything runs smoothly.
It’s important to me that I’m accessible to all JCR members, so please don’t hesitate to reach out with any concern or comment - you can reach me at jcr.president@univ.ox.ac.uk or robert.mylne@univ.ox.ac.uk.

Hi! I’m Rose (she/her), a second year PPEist from Manchester, and I’m this year's JCR VP/Affairs. As VP my role is to support Rob, helping him communicate with the wider JCR and key college staff. Being head of JCR Affairs, or Secretary, I schedule, send out agendas for and minute our fortnightly JCR meetings. These are super accessible (not to mention the free pizza), so I really recommend attending and getting involved! Please contact me at jcr.secretary@univ.ox.ac.uk if you would like to send in a motion: recent motions include “Motion to fund Univ Swimming Team” and “Motion to buy a JCR Bike Pump”.
Apart from being JCR VP/Affairs, I am also Univ’s Women*s Rep, ensuring Univ is a welcoming and inclusive place for all genders! If you have any questions about the JCR, life at Univ, PPE or anything else, drop me an email either at jcr.secretary@univ.ox.ac.uk or rose.joslin@univ.ox.ac.uk. Enjoy your summer and I’m looking forward to meeting you all in October!

Hi All! I’m Jack (he/him), a second-year Lawyer from the United States, and one of your three welfare reps for this upcoming year. Along with Iona and Katie, I’m here to help and offer guidance to help make your time at Univ as wonderful as possible.
I know there are moments at Oxford which might feel stressful or difficult. My job is to direct you to those within the welfare team who can best address your needs and to lend a helping hand wherever possible.
Of course, your time at Oxford should be filled with intellectual gratification, but that doesn’t mean we can’t fit some fun events and gatherings in-between those long hours in the library. Stay tuned for welfare teas and 5th week events!
Ultimately, I’m here to offer help where you need it, and hope to be a friendly face around college. Please reach out! I’m jack.daggenhurst@univ.ox.ac.uk

Hi! I’m Katie (she/her), a second year Physics student from London, and one of this year’s new welfare reps! I am here, working alongside Iona and Jack, to help with any concerns you may have. Although very fun, at times Oxford can also be a stressful environment, so we are here to help improve morale and support your mental health through welfare teas and other fun events.
We can direct you to other support available at Univ and just be a person to talk to in times of stress. My email is katherine.edwards@univ.ox.ac.uk, so don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions or concerns! We are here to help.

Hey! I'm Sebastian (he/him, second-year ancient and modern historian) from Durham. As your JCR sports rep, I'm responsible for all things sports-related from college sports teams and cuppers, to sports days and equipment! There’s a huge variety of sports on offer, both in college and across the university from football and darts to waterpolo and ice hockey! At Univ, we’re super lucky to have brilliant sports facilities very close by, including a squash court and a college gym on main site (underneath Goodhart and Master’s Lodgings!) as well as a sports ground for football, rounders and cricket, and shared tennis and netball courts (not to mention, our boathouse!) so you’ll never run out of things to do in your free time! College sports life is extremely fun, engaging and active. We will hopefully have a Sports Day with our Sister College in Cambridge (Trinity Hall) as well as other events throughout the year and hope to see lots of you there!
If you have any questions about college or university sport (including financial support for University athletes), feel free to email us at jcr.sports@univ.ox.ac.uk or dm @univsports_ on instagram!!

We are always open to talk about any questions or concerns you may have, so please feel free to email me at iona.fuhrmann@univ.ox.ac.uk or jcr.welfare@univ.ox.ac.uk.

Primarily, we are in charge of running the ballots for choosing your accommodation for second and third year. This entails organising open houses, photographing rooms, and generally helping you to make informed decisions about where you’ll be living. However, if you have any questions about your upcoming accommodation in first year, we’re happy to answer those as well!
Additionally, we’re involved with both everyday dining and Univ’s biweekly formals. We organise a few special dinners each year as well - details to follow soon. We are also happy to pass along any comments regarding meals to the kitchen team.

Hey! I’m Jude, a second year CAAHist from Kent, and I’ll be your access and equal opportunities officer this year.
This means I’ll be working with the other equality and diversity reps to coordinate events and other campaigns. These will focus on raising awareness, making life at Univ easier and more accessible for students from underrepresented backgrounds, and creating a community in college where you can find people with similar experiences to you and make new friends! As someone with a physical disability, a member of the queer community and someone from a less privileged socio-economic background I know how daunting coming to University can be and the kind of challenges it can pose, so if you ever need a chat or advice please feel free to contact me!
Equally, if you have any issues, queries or ideas for events/campaigns do let me know over email, or come up to me in college (I promise I’m friendly)!

I’m this year’s academic affairs officer. What does that mean?
In the most extreme cases, it means that if anyone finds themselves struggling academically and either wants or needs help or intervention from college, I can act as a point of contact, and as someone who will fight for you in meetings with them. But my role isn’t one that indicates any sort of failure. It is there to promote positive and pro-active academic habits, from the moment you get here to the day you graduate from your undergrad. And that’s why I’m recommending to you all, whether you’re an incoming student or going into your finals year, to make as much use of the academic support on offer as possible.
We have the privilege of being able to attend 2-3 academic skills lectures a term, and have academic student support services available to us, which begins the academic year without a waiting list. Links are at: https://unioxfordnexus.sharepoint.com/sites/UNIV-AcTS

Advisory Roles
Advisory roles don't have any constitutional responsibilities but advise the current executive committee. They are held by recent members of the appropriate position.
Independent Roles
The independent roles of the JCR don't sit on any committee. They instead keep the JCR meetings running smoothly by moderating the meetings.
