Hands up if you've got election fatigue? This week, let's just sigh at some nice animals. Plus the results of last week's poll comparing the social media preferences of students and staff.
Haven't we all had enough polls and elections for now? Let's just sigh at some nice animals, and get back to real questions next week.
All aaaahs are anonymous. Check the next edition of Campus e-News for the final results.
Last week's results
We had a record number of votes for this one! It was interesting to see that Facebook still dominates and that the same proportions of staff and students use it. After that, Twitter and LinkedIn are more popular with staff, while students prefer Instagram and Snapchat.
