Coursework ~~ Cr~~ Times | Newsletter T2W9

Election Results, plenty of Free Food, and our Programming Challenge!

It is once again the time of coursework, what a crime by the department! I only hope Warwick+ is better than Waffles (should have been called Wetflix, smh)

To match the coursework pain, we have a fairly chill week, very excitingly with Chocolate Milk. So drop in to Milk Mondays, which is happening right now!

Congrats to the winners of our programming competition! If you didn't get a chance to take part, the problems are still up at progcomp.uwcs.co.uk. We'll also be adding back previous competitions' questions soon.

Next week, we have an End of Term Circle on Monday, which has pushed the End of Term Meal to Wednesday.

🥛 Milk Mondays W9 w/ Chocolate Milk

🕙 Mon 6 Mar 10am - 2pm 📍 DCs Atrium
You already know what it is. As it is the first Monday of the month, we are bounded by the motion to provide chocolate milk!

🍔 Weekly Pub Meal W9

🕡 Mon 6 Mar 6:30pm - 9pm 📍 Dirty Duck
Since we moved last week's to the Phantom Coach because of the fire on campus, we'll be switching back to the Duck, so we don't have to trek over to the Coach three weeks in a row.

🍻 End of Term Circle

🍛 End of Term Meal

🕖 Wed 15 Mar 7pm - 9pm 📍 Blue Orchid
Our end of term meal will be at Blue Orchid!
