Oxford University students fear freshers’ fair stalls may be too triggering for some

Student union to place warnings on stalls which students could find distressing, as well as setting up a wellbeing zone

Oxford University’s student union has said it will place “trigger warnings” on freshers’ fair stalls which students could find distressing.

The union said it will also install a wellbeing zone for anyone who feels “uncomfortable” at the event this week.

More than 400 clubs and societies related to areas including music, sports, literature, politics, faith and cultural groups, at the university are eligible to have a stall at the freshers’ fair on Thursday and Friday.
