Our MCR Committee
The 2025/26 Committee
We are the current Sidney Sussex MCR committee for 2025-26. We not only organise a lot of social and welfare events for you but also sit in on college committees and the SU and are your contact people for anything you’d like to raise with them.
Please get in touch with any of us if you have any questions or concerns. We also have some unoccupied committee roles so also get in touch if you are interested in joining us!
The Sidney Sussex MCR is governed by a constitution which can be read here: Sidney Sussex MCR Constitution.
You can find more information about what we do on the Sidney Sussex Website.

Markus Verlemann
Green Officer
Hello there, I’m Markus, a first-year PhD student in maths studying general relativity and freshly baked green officer. Contrary to the maths stereotype I am a really social guy and will do my best to make the best college even better. I hope all of you have an amazing experience at Sidney. Some of my many hobbies include cooking, techno/jazz, boardgames and bouldering. But you know what I like even more than those things? That’s right – the environment. So don’t hesitate to reach out to me if you have any cool suggestions or inquiries about anything green related!

Computer Officer
sidneymcr-computer@srcf.ucam.org
Bonjour tout le monde!! I’m Sam, postgraduate fresher at the MPhil in Scientific Computing. When I go away from my laptop (which is not often as you have guessed), you might meet me at the bouldering gym or hiking on the swiss alps! I will be the Computer Officer for 2024/2025, so don’t hesitate to hit me up with any IT related issues you have, or if you have any requests about our website! ✨

Maria Jose Rubio Ulloa (Pepa)
LGBTQ+ Officer
Hi, I’m Elizabeth (she/her for now)!
I’m the LGBTQ+ rep - I’ve been doing various queer stuff at Cambridge both town and university affiliated, from roller derby 🛼, organising ace meet-ups (the sexuality, although we also very cool 😎) and also coordinating uni-wide LGBTQ+ stuff from socials to talks to clothes swaps to Dragtime theatre trips.
A good place to start finding stuff stuff is here: https://www.facebook.com/cambridgesulgbt
I’m also an engineering student doing double time - it’s an alternative to intermission that is more suitable for chronic conditions, so if you have any questions about accessibility, disability and mental health feel free to get in touch!
Aspec love 💜💚 x
