Election Voting Closing Tomorrow, otherwise, a pretty standard week!

Our AGM was on Friday, which I'm sure was very fun for everyone there, and even more fun for those attempting to watch (listen) to our online stream of it. Anyway, elections are open for a little longer: please go vote, we need quite a few votes to hit our vote minimum (quorum).

We have a fairly simple week (for once), with just our regular events!

🕡 Mon 20 Feb 6:30pm - 9pm 📍 Phantom Coach
Another Monday, another Pub. We're going to the Phantom Coach today - meet us there from 18:30 or at DCS, where some of us will be walking over from around 18:15.

🗳️ Election Voting Closing

Our AGM was last Friday, and online voting for exec positions are open for just a bit longer! If you want to see discussion or ask questions of candidates, check the #elections forum on our Discord

We also have plenty of discussion on the motions, please check on that for some of the more drastic motions.

☕ CompCafé W7

🕔 Tue 21 Feb from 5pm 📍 CS0.01

I would say I enjoyed the AGM, but then again, I was lured away by the promise of a Ferris plushie and a Rust book
