December graduation story call

In just a few weeks the campus will be wall-to-wall proud graduands and their relieved families, braving the Jammie steps and the summer torpor of Jammie Hall for a festival of graduation from 12 to 18 December. For a moment, forget how you're going to spend your bonus and put on your thinking cap: Monday Paper needs leads for the December graduation edition. We need to hear about those special grad stories in your department - tales to crisp the cockles of the heart; moms or dads hooding their kids, kids hooding their moms or dads, octogenarians claiming their first degrees, graduands who've grappled with life's trials to nail that qualification. And then there's jaw-dropping research, captured in scores of final theses. We want to hear about it. The world wants to hear about it. Send your lead to Monday Paper, with the gist of the story and contact details. But hurry. The deadline is 23 November.
