On 22 November, King’s College London Rugby Football Club (KCLRFC) hosted a charity egging event outside Bush House, raising money for charity. They also live-streamed the event on their Instagram.

The event was hosted as part of KCLRFC’s charity drive for Movember (a men’s health charity), for which several members of the society are also growing out their facial hair to raise money. In addition to being egged by passersby, participants have been actively promoting awareness about men’s health issues, encouraging donations and sharing their personal fundraising journeys on their Instagram story.

From 19 November 2024, The King’s College London Student Union (KCLSU) will begin selling Karma Cola at the Shack, following conversations within the Union to provide ‘more ethical products’ at KCLSU venues.

This move marks the launch of a KCLSU pilot project aiming to explore more sustainable and socially responsible product offerings around campus.

Should the trial prove commercially successful enough, it is possible that Karma Cola will eventually become the only cola brand offered at KCLSU venues.

Editor-in-Chief Nia Simeonova interviews Professor Angela Stent – an expert on Russia who served as a U.S. intelligence officer and dined with Vladimir Putin 15 times.

Rushing from one room to the other, Professor Angela Stent seamlessly switches topics between the upcoming U.S. election, Vladimir Putin and the Russian Empire. Her purple earrings sparkle as she speaks, as if winking at her perfectly matched violet coat.

It is 29 October and we are sitting in an office in the King’s Building, minutes before Prof Stent is set to deliver the Engelsberg Applied History Annual Lecture in the Bush House Auditorium.

King’s College London announced the Dr Maisara Alrayyes Scholarship for Palestinian postgraduate students, to be introduced for the 2025-26 academic year.

The scholarship is designed to provide funding to one Palestinian student each year to pursue an MSc in a “health or health science subject”.

This scholarship comes after Dr Alrayyes was killed on 5 November 2023 by an Israeli airstrike on returning to Gaza after completing his master’s degree in Women and Children’s Health at KCL in 2020 under the prestigious Chevening Scholarship.
