The Graduate Common Room (GCR)
The Graduate Common Room (known as the GCR) lies at the heart of college student activities, and all Green Templeton students, irrespective of their status or place of residence, are automatically members.
GCR Committee for 2021-2022
President: Ache Atta-Boateng
I work with the Graduate Common Room Committee (GCRC) alongside college staff to advocate and promote student interest within and outside the College. The GCRC supports all student-led initiatives that are essential to the academic and social life at the college. I look forward to engaging with you this academic year to learn about your ideas, concerns and to work together on student initiatives.

Environmental Officers: Sarah Levy, Julia Knox and Ujunwa Ojemeni
My name is Sarah Levy, and I am one of your Environmental Representatives for the GCR during the 2021-2022 academic year. I am a first year DPhil candidate in law, and my research will focus on Canadian sealing activities, a topic which concerns environmental, animal, and Indigenous rights at once. An environmental lawyer by background, I am passionate about and have experience working on a range of environmental issues, such as energy policy, water conservation, waste regulation, wildlife protection, and agricultural management. It is my goal to harness my passion and experience to serve the college community and the broader Oxford environment at once as your Environmental Representative. Please feel free to reach out to us if you have any ideas for initiatives that you would like to see us promote!
