The College community works because we all work cooperatively together. One of the best pieces of advice for any member of the Selwyn community is that you can never be too polite or too respectful in dealings with other members of College, whatever their role or status. Your life will be much easier if you maintain good relationships.
This section of the Guide gives you information about who does what and provides details of a variety of useful contacts.
