Since Autumn 2012 everyone who
graduates from the University automatically becomes a member of
the General Council.
Other categories of membership will be managed
individually as previously by the General Council Office, to
whom all queries should be addressed.
A register of members is maintained in conjunction with
Development & Alumni. Any changes to personal details should be
notified.
The principal communications about the General
Council are to be found in Billet within Edit, the
Annex to the Billet, the General Council website
and in electronic newsletters.
