Prez Sez Issue 18

If you were wondering why things have quietened down in terms of events happening on campus I can assure you it has been as a direct result of the bad weather we have been happening. AuSM has a lunchtime social programme in place all year so that every week there is something going on at the north shore on Tuesday and in the city on Thursday. We were meant to have had various entertainment however due to the awful weather we have been having we have continually had to cancel what we had planned. I hope you are all not getting cabin fever from the bad weather, with having to continually be couped up inside. In the up and coming months of September and October (before the year comes to an end) we have a number of events planned, however many are weather dependent. All these events will be building up to the end of year AuSM De-Orientation Festival. Let's hope for a change in the weather sometime soon!

Lastly, after you all return from the 2 week September break, AuSM will be conducting voting for the AuSM Awesome Awards. This initiative was started in 2007, where by students are given the opportunity to vote for their favourite lecturers, and other staff around campus who students believe should be recognised. After the voting process is complete, AuSM will be putting on an awards lunch to thank these staff on your behalf for all their hard work and efforts. Keep an eye out after the September break for more information on how you can have your opportunity to have your say.

Best of luck with all those assignments and exams!
