Uh, do you actually have to raise money and stuff, or is it just a cover name? I would prefer the latter...

RAG week is a week of funding raising run by most students unions once a year. It's basically a big messy week of drinking

I don't know... It seems to be, though the old keyboard, sitar & saxophone player in my old progressive jazz band did his music masters in Queens last year, I'll give him a text.

Its not like half term, because half term is just a week off from school.
Lectures techincally still go on during Rag week, but the lecturers deliberately don't cover much because no one turns up.
It's a lot closer to Americas Spring Break than it is Half Term.
