Senior Tutor

Each College has a Personal Advisor system which is intended to provide support for each student independently of their academic departments.  In Cartmel, each student is allocated to a Personal Advisor on the basis of residential blocks.  A Personal Advisor is a senior member of Cartmel College (either a member of staff or postgraduate student) and will be available for help and advice throughout your time at Lancaster but especially in your first year.

The College Porters

Jonathan, Paul, Stewart and Tim’s duties are numerous. Many of them are mundane but essential to the running of the College. Amongst other things, they sort the mail, attend fire alarms, patrol the University campus, and look after all the keys. The porters operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and can normally be found in the Porters Lodge. If they are out carrying out their various duties, there is a phone nearby which you can use if your issue is urgent. The porters are here to make your life in Cartmel as easy as possible. If the porter cannot answer your query, he should know someone who can.
