Hi postgrads,
This week sees the return of one of the most important dates in the SU calendar: Housing Day 2018. If you’re planning to live off-campus at any point, this is your opportunity to find out everything you need to know about the house-hunting process - come along to the Atrium between 10am-3:30pm this Wednesday to chat to members of the SU Advice Centre team, Warwick Accommodation, local District Councils and more. If you’re already living off-campus, check out our Photo Competition below for a chance to help your fellow students and bag a prize!
As we start the countdown to the festive season here at the SU, tickets for the PG Christmas Party on 13th December are now on sale. Taking place in the SU Atrium between 6-8pm, we’ll be teaming up with the team from the PG Hub to bring you Christmas crafts, quizzes and a chance to try your luck on the amazing reindeer rodeo! With giant games and party music, this promises to be a fun evening – mince pies and mulled wine will be provided, with tickets available now for just £2.50 (see below for purchase link).
Finally, don’t forget that our next Acoustic Open Jam event takes place in The Graduate this Friday! Bring your own instrument along from 5:30pm to show off your talents – this will be followed at 7:30pm by a performance from members of Koan Records, a student-led record label aimed at recording and promoting University of Warwick student musicians.
See you soon,
Ellie.
