The old and the new editors
It’s been a great year King’s. Through all the ups and downs this year, I’m really proud of the position that the Watch is currently in both financially and socially.

Programm John: Kicking off a festival is no easy task, but this quartet from Toronto pulled it off well. Their unique brand of synth-pop made me seriously melancholy and contemplative. They […]
Election season hits King’s next week. Speeches will be filled with the usual bullshit of “more transparency, student activism and trend X to be applied to TWAK” (what’ll it be next? Holograms? Morse Code? Smoke signals?!). You can guarantee The Watch will follow it every step of the way.
