    Audrey Davidson-Houston

    Editorial/Events Team

     

    Audrey is a second year undergraduate reading Classics and English at St Hugh's College. Despite for some reason picking a degree half focused in language learning, she is really only interested in literature (as her tutors have all come to realise) and spends her life convincing others and mostly herself that Latin really is useful. When not engaged in this dilemma, she can be found on the committee of St Hugh's book club, watching movies, playing the ukulele, too often in Bridge and as a *strictly* social member of St Hugh's netball club.
