The annual GCU Student’s Association Star Awards took place on Thursday, celebrating the hard work and dedication of groups and individuals across the campus.
Awards were given out to commend societies, representatives, student media groups (that’s us!) and the work of particular students who’ve made a difference in and beyond the university.
While it may have appeared that The EDIT team went along solely to enjoy the prosecco and three course meal provided, don’t let the photos fool you – we were actually there on extremely professional press related business. Here’s our comprehensive list of the winners at the ceremony, along with some photographs of ourselves and fellow student media team Radio Caley making the most of the night.
