The big news this week is the return of the
All Student Meeting on Monday, together with our annual membership survey, Help Us Help You. We know that as Postgrads you
don’t always get the chance to engage with us as much as you’d perhaps like or need, so that’s why it’s really important that you let us know how we’re doing
here at the SU so that we can try and make your student experience the very best that it can be.
Make sure you visit warwicksu.com/helpushelpyou at some point during the week to fill out the survey
online – all your feedback is important to us, and there’s a prize draw at the end for completed entries! In the meantime, here’s a flavour of what else is
going on this week…
