JCR and MCR


The Junior Combination Room (JCR), Middle Combination Room (MCR) and Senior CombinationRoom (SCR) are the names of both the Committees and the rooms in which they meet. JCR represents the interests of undergraduate students, MCR represents postgraduate students, and SCR represents Fellows at the College.

Becoming a member of a College committee is a great way to gain valuable experience and ensure that the interests and opinions of students are represented at the highest levels of College administration.

In keeping with Churchill’s progressive and democratic values, the College Council, Governing Body and many of the College’s operational committees include student representatives from the JCR and the MCR.

Representatives are usually selected from the annually elected JCR and MCR Officers. However, the College welcomes interest from any student. If you are keen to get involved, please contact your JCR or MCR President.

JCR Committee

The JCR Committee is an annually elected group of undergraduates that work to represent the interests of Churchill’s undergraduate student body both within the College and to Cambridge University Students’ Union (CUSU). This includes organising student events, advising the College on student priorities, and working with the College to shape decisions.

The JCR committee is elected each year in Lent Term and is made up of 20 officers, each with specific roles.  The JCR website lists the current Committee and provides updates on activities.

The JCR meets once a fortnight through Full Term (until the exams). Any Churchill College undergraduates can attend these Open Meetings, to vote and propose motions. All Churchill College undergraduates are added to the JCR mailing list, which is an important way to find out about events and activities in College.

You can find more details on the JCR Instagram, or get in touch with the JCR President.
