On behalf of my sabbatical team and the SRC members, I would like to say a hearty welcome to all of you. We are here to provide support in every aspect of your stay at the University.

Here at the Students’ Un-ion, we see ourselves as the “hearthstone” of the Universi-ty. We represent student rights on academic and social issues and also listen to all your concerns. If you have problems with money, landlords, employ-ers, Uni work, or just want to party, we are here for you!

Enjoy your first year!Benson Adeeso

FRESHERS

WEEK ‘08 This is the best opportunity

to meet new people and is al-

ways an exhilarating week, jam

packed full of various activities

and events for all students.

The Freshers’ Crew are

friendly student volunteers

who are here solely to make

your time as easy and fun as

possible Previous Freshers’

Weeks have included bowling,

go-karting, boat trips, pitch

and putt and BBQs, pub quiz-

zes, karaoke and school discos

and the Freshers’ Ball, with

cocktail dresses, tuxedos and

all the glam.

Sports and

Societies Getting involved in societies is

an excellent way of meeting new

people and submerging yourself

in student life whilst studying. We

have an array of different societies

which are constantly expanding but

if there still isn’t anything that takes

your fancy then why not start up a

society yourself?

See the current ones and join at

the Freshers Fayre or online, www.

Greenwich Mariners are the Uni-versity’s American Football team who compete in the British Uni-versity American Football League (BUAFL) against other universities. This exciting sport has grown to become one of the most popu-lar team sports on the university scene including all the thrills, spills and cheerleaders you see on TV. The Mariners have quickly devel-oped into one of the league’s most explosive outfi ts with division titles to their name. Keep an eye out at Fresher’s Fayre for them, they won’t be hard to spot!
