Cambridge could introduce a reading week, full freshers’ week, and a weekend under a proposal by Cambridge SU Undergraduate President, Ben Margolis. The proposal, which is currently under consultation would significantly revise the Cambridge term structure in an attempt to improve both student well-being and academic performance. The Tab Cambridge spoke to Ben Margolis about his plans: ‘The current nature of Cambridge education is actively detrimental to student’s education’ Critiques of the Cambridge term structure have a long history, with Ben telling the Tab his proposals came about following a breadth of evidence: from last year’s report on student loneliness, to a 2016 report on student workloads and collaboration between Cambridge libraries and the SU’s a few years ago. He said this evidence has led him to believe that “the current nature of Cambridge education is actively detrimental to student’s education.” His proposals attempt to reduce recurring issues Cambridge students face and allow the university to “offer a higher quality of education, and an equally valuable degree, whilst providing a better environment for students.”
