BNOC of the Year: Group 1

The BNOC of the Year competition is back. Over 200 nominations were made to The Tab Newcastle. Three groups of nominations will fight it out for your votes to be crowned Newcastle’s biggest name on campus.

From society presidents to socialites to promoters, here are a few of the biggest names on campus:

Deej Senghore

Studies: English Language, second year

From: Durham

Reason for being a big name: RAG Week and Freshers’ Week

“If you add someone on Facebook – Deej is sure to be a mutual friend. He is a big name on RAG and Freshers’ Crew. He is also famous on Leazes Ticket Exchange for being lost by his housemates when he was absolutely bladdered one night.”

Clara Pettitt

Shiv Kolhe

He’s on the left

Studies: Medicine, first year

From: Derby

Reason for being a big name: Medic socialite

“Everywhere he goes it just happens to be someone or the other knows him, whether it be on campus or on a night out. Loved by his year, known by all (especially medics) for his antics on nights out – on particular heavy nights, his mates refer to him as ‘shivved’. You will probably have seen this guy at the bar in Soho trying to balance a ridiculous amount of blue trebs between his hands – from the bouncers to the ambulance service and even the police recognise him. A good boy. A charmer. Girls dig him, guys want to be him.”
