Prepare for a particularly peculiar brand of eccentricity to descend upon campus this week as RAG WEEK returns to the SU! Brace yourself for the sight of 6ft furry animals wandering around delivering surprises to all and sundry - if you want to send something special to a friend, loved one or lecturer, make sure you sign up at the Rag stall in the Atrium. Alternatively, you can arrange to have your nemesis 'gnomed', which involves them being cling-filmed to a tree and pelted with eggs, flour and water - perfect for that lazy flatmate who hasn't been doing their share of the washing-up!
Elsewhere, be sure to vote in the All Student Meeting this week if you want to have your say on the issues submitted by students, for students! Here's a taste of what's going on over the next 7 days…

Tonight is the first All Student Meeting of the year, starting at 5.30pm in the Atrium. All students are welcome to join the debate and can vote online on the issues being discussed throughout the week. You can view the agenda and join the online debate at warwicksu.com/asm - voting opens at midday tomorrow and closes midday Friday. Make sure you are part of Democracy at your Union - don't let decisions be made on your behalf!

Student Minds is a charity which aims to spread awareness of and aid students suffering or recovering from eating disorders. Warwick's talk group is held on Mondays from 3:30pm in Meeting Room 6 of SUHQ. These groups are run by 2 facilitators who are there to guide the conversations - the talk groups are not seen as an alternative to formal treatment, but as a place for students suffering or recovering from eating disorders to discuss troubles in a safe and confidential environment.
|
The upcoming Go Global Fair (taking place this Wednesday in the SU Atrium between 12:30pm-3pm), offers valuable opportunities for any students wanting to have an international experience here on campus or overseas - be it by studying abroad, working as a language assistant, undertaking an international volunteering opportunity or joining a student society with a global reach. You'll be able to speak to fellow students about their experiences in over 15 countries - the International Office, Careers&Skills, the Language Centre, Monash-Warwick Alliance and Warwick in Africa will also be present, demonstrating how the University can support students in their mission to 'Go Global'!
|
Come along and get yourself checked out for STIs at our free and confidential GUM Clinic on Tuesday from 11:30am. The process is non-invasive and there's no need to make an appointment - just turn up to MR 4/5 of SUHQ and you'll be seen as soon as possible. (n.b. You must be registered for an appointment by 5pm, so don't leave it too late if you definitely want to be seen!)
