    Think I saw on the website of the Junior Association of Classical Teachers that their campaign worked or w/e and there won't be any closures

    Thanks. It's worrying that their newly established Classics & Philosophy Dept, will be changed yet again. Would it be unwise to address my concerns on Thursday ?

    No, ask them. Perhaps not in a group, but one on one when you're to the side with a lecturer or something. Slip it into the conversation.

    I'm hoping to do classics at RHUL in September (depending on if I get the grades) and they told me on the day of my interview that department isn't closing down and has no plans to in the future. It's definitely safe to apply. I wouldn't have firmed it if I thought there was a chance of closure.
