Tue 01 Oct Newsletter

HELLO fake, faker and fakest mathematicians (and the few real ones of you here). This newsletter isn't late, I am simply immune to your mere mortal ways of measuring time.

It is with great pleasure that I get to welcome you and all your fresh faces to the University of Warwick (except the old ones, welcome back I guess), and to the world of despair (a computer science degree). You've just entered a new world of fun, and despite the relentless pain and suffering lectures you'll be enduring for the next 10 weeks, UWCS have your back! We're starting off the term with some absolutely BANGER events so you can make even more friends and enjoy yourself!

Since we have a lot of new faces I just want to remind you that the society has a couple of welfare officers, so whether you're feeling homesick, worried, lonely or otherwise struggling, we have the fabulous Serene (@thiswasdumb) and Raven (@raven0034) who can be contacted on discord or found at many of our socials!


🍔 Pub meal 🍔

🕘Monday 30th September 7pm - 9pm📍The Dirty Duck Phantom Coach

I’m so hungry for EDUCATION

To start off the first day of the year we will be going to the Dirty Duck Phantom Coach! (Apparently the Duck has no gas and can't cook? Seems like a pretty bad idea guys). We would be honoured to help you relax over food, or not, you don’t have to eat, with our trip to the Phoach; I’m sure those Monday lectures are gonna be quite harsh after months of freedom and fun!


☕ Internship Café ☕

🕘Tuesday 1st October 6pm - 7pm📍CS0.06

Do I really have to do an internship :(

IT’S TUESDAY NOW, GET READY BECAUSE WE HAVE AN INTERNSHIP CAFÉ!!! A modern and unique spin on our regular Comp Café event where you will be able to get useful and informative information on internships such as the opportunities that may be available to you and how to go about applying to them! The DCS Senior Careers Consultant Samantha Merrix will be there to answer your questions, too!


🐍 X-Soc Python Course 💻

🕘Thursday 3rd October 7pm - 9pm📍MS.01

Should've studied maths so you don't have to program...

The first session of our Cross Society weekly beginner's Python course is coming to YOU this Thursday evening, in collaboration with Warwick AI and CodeSoc. It will be running every week until week 6, so be sure to come along :)


👨‍💻 Git Good Labs 👨‍💻

Friday 4th October 5pm - 7pm📍CS0.06

Hear about our lord and saviour perforce version control

You all attended git good right? If not the recording got corrupted so womp womp for you (jk we have the old one recorded). I may have spewed far too many words at you during the presentation so to put this into practice we have a handy workshop for you to try.


🎮 Friday Night Gaming 🎮

🕘Friday 4th October 7pm - Late📍CS Department

The only reason I get up in the morning

We had an incredible turnout to our Welcome Week FNG, and so I'm sure you can't wait for Friday to roll around for the next one. Get up, come to DCS, and play games with all the friends you've made through our amazing events. Nothing could ever make you happier, or provide a better break from your degree this has not been fact checked, and I do not have a source


So there it is! This wraps up all the events for the first week of the year and it is PACKED. I know you've heard it a thousand times already, bt congratulations to all the first years for making it here, and remember the welfare officers exist if yo're having a hard time - Ray and their super secret ghost writer <3
