Term 1 Week 5
Posted on 1st November 2009Greetings CompSoc!
Unfortunately this week Mogmiester is marooned somewhere remote, so
you're stuck with my ramblings instead of his.
If you're not aware, there is a LAN party coming up in a few weeks.
Signups are already pretty full, so please checkout
http://uwcs.co.uk/events/details/1130/ for more details ASAP.
Not much else to say really other than what we have this week, which
is the same sort of fun as usual! You might want to note that I am
doing a Python Programming tutorial on Wednesday. Hopeful...
Term 1 Week 4
Posted on 25th October 2009Sup CompSoc.
We have an exec meeting tomorrow at 5-6. Please come along and raise any
points you wish to raise, or come along just see see your friendly exec
members in action! After that we will be heading down to the pub as usual.

Term 1 Week 3
Posted on 18th October 2009Hello Compsoc!
After a lengthy discussion at Friday's exec meeting, we have decided
that we will no longer be advertising food as part of the pre-gaming
social. You can order food if you want, but please be aware that even
if the dirty duck is full, we won't be moving over to Rootes Social
building or the like. If you liked food at the social and think this was the
wrong decision to make, or if you have any other ways you think that
the society could be improved, you should come along to the exec
meeting n...
Term 1 Week 2
Posted on 10th October 2009Hello CompSoc!
First of all, a big welcome to all the new freshers! I hope that
you've had an action packed first week, without too many hangovers!
Hopefully you turned up to gaming yesterday, but if not then have no
fear, as it runs every Friday.
There will be a freshers social this Monday, which you should come
along to and meet the exec, after which those that are interested will
be able to walk to the pub with us to have a bite to eat, chat to
current members, and possibly have a pint.
We will be hea...
