Ah. This is funny @ProfRachelGaN
I remembered you from so where. You were my Devices lecturer.
Very empathetic. Defo not the norm for me as one of the very few disabled working-class BME students there.
At one point you also did Microstructures.
I still have your notes

Understanding ferroelectric, pyroelectric and piezoelectric effects. Just generally the importance of directional order of polymers. Phenomenas of dislocations and pinnings etc. It allows me to see overlapping ideas in other subject areas. Applying ideas I novel ways.

It's a real mixed bag of a course, but it does highlight connections which run through materials science, which is the best part from my viewpoint.

In NatSci, MatSci & Chem Dept seem to run good courses. I was a fan of the labs, they really cemented the concepts, I wish there were more projects. It would have been good to have some materials informatics.

Sounds fun. I did Astrophysics (mostly Maths). But was barred from continuing into Part III b/c of medical complications during the exam period. (Common story for disable students there). Built an AI startup after I left, now just applying for MPhil & PhD.

I'm sorry to hear that the system prevented you from achieving your goals. There's a big piece of work going on at the moment about awarding gaps for disabled students, and I'm hopeful we may soon see real meaningful change.

It’s been weird watching Cambridge’s response to COVID and separately watching it’s response to its own disabled students in previous years. It felt like support was always possible. Just our lives didn’t matter enough.

Well, they’re talking about it. There needs to be contextualisation. While I was there I was bullied by academics, made temporarily homeless, my medical records were leaked, was a victim of domestic violence, etc So I had to overcome barrier and be more capable than my peers.

oh my goodness, so sorry you were made to experience all that, sounds horrendous. Hope things are better now?

Honestly, I just persevered, believing hardworking would mean I could just overcome these obstacles — when most the others left. The worst instance was when I in hospital and I recieved an email from the uni telling me I was a burden and they need to priotise their students.
