A warm and enthusiastic welcome to Josephine Butler College. Your journey with us marks an exciting step into a contemporary community committed to your growth and success. As you join Butler, you are embracing an inclusive and supportive environment that values curiosity, friendship, and personal development. Our community of students, staff, alumni, and friends work together to create opportunities for all. Our Junior Common Room (JCR) provides the core of undergraduate student life: a self-organising group embodying the spirit of everything Butler.
Hello and welcome to Josephine Butler College! Our Junior Common Room (JCR) is the heart of our student community, offering a range of activities, events, and support. From sports and societies to social and academic opportunities, there's something for everyone. Run by students for students, the JCR is a great way to #getinvolved and meet new people. If you have ideas or need support, reach out on Instagram @butler.sabbs or email butler.jcr@durham.ac.uk. Congratulations on your offer, and we can’t wait to see you soon!
After results day, we will contact and keep new students updated via email. This will be in the form of 'InThurmation'. The first issue will be sent out on 22 August. If you are not receiving these, please email jb.adminassistant@durham.ac.uk.
You will be given an arrival/registration time and date slot which will be on either Saturday 28 or Sunday 29 September. We ask you to stick to this as closely as possible as we have limited parking spaces.
The Timetable has been designed so College events don’t clash with any of your academic departmental events, but offer you lots of opportunities to meet your fellow Freshers, find your way around and settle into student life.
