SENIOR COMMON ROOM

 

All graduates coming into College are automatically members of the Senior Common Room.  The SCR has its own constitution, and is central to the internal fellowship and academic direction of the College. Members of the Senior Common Room, being all resident in College, are available to undergraduate students for tutorials and consultation.  Whether or not they currently take classes all are actively engaged in the tutorial and mentoring system. 

The Senior Common Room meets monthly during term.  On week-day nights during term members also meet before Dinner in Hall and sit together at High Table. Beyond that, the SCR has its own program of social activities (dinners, bush-walks, excursions), managed by its Social Secretary, as well as the gatherings it shares with equivalent bodies in other colleges at Sydney University.
