Hello from the Netsoc Committee!

We hope you're excited for the year's coming activities, the first of which being our EGM / meet and greet on Wednesday at 6 p.m in Kevin Street.
Expect free pizza and red bull!

As well as getting to know everyone we'll be asking for your feedback in analogue format (paper, it will be supplied) regarding the following:

Workshop days and times - you tell us the best day and time for workshops to take place. We want them suited to you, the members and need to find out when would suit!

ELECTING A FIRST YEAR REP!

Again, PIZZA! (Lots).

Also, it's a chance for anyone who missed societies week to sign up or for existing members to re-sign up ( we need existing members to sign up again every year, or else soc's office won't recognise you as a member ).

Also we'd like feedback on a society hoodie or maybe t-shirt (rough mock ups provided). The more interest the cheaper we get them!

See you on Wednesday, come on down for pizza, let us know your ideas and to Netsoc
