Hiya, just to let everyone know here are some recent titbits from Guild Council:

- Shell oil are now allowed to advertise in the Guild following a Guild policy change

- A banner campaigning for decisive action on climate change at Copenhagen is being made to hang in Mermaid Square

- The Guild Council chambers are to be renamed the “Mark Terry Council Chambers” to recognise a former Birmingham student who campaigned against apartheid

- As part of the building work Joe’s bar is to be re-located, as are the ARC, Student Development and the Job Zone – The Guild has pledged to cut CO2 emissions by 10% by 2010

- A book exchange is up and running and needs more publicity!

- There is an ongoing campaign to allow LGBTQ students to donate blood when the donation van comes back.
