21 Apr '19

Welcome back to Oxford! We hope you all had a relaxing vacation, and are looking forward to the coming term. Trinity is often quiet for CompSoc, but the committee is working hard to get some interesting events running to brighten up exam season! Stay tuned for the term card, but expect Geek Nights, talks, and a few new additions to the CompSoc calendar. We’ll be running another stash order this term. Until *the end of Week 1*, you can order CompSoc hoodies for £10 and CompSoc t-shirts for £5 here <http://www.customclubclothing.co.uk/shop/index.php?c=259>. We aim to get the stash ready for you to collect by Week 6 or 7. We’re also delivering on the promise of *CompSocks*. Each sock is embroidered with the CompSoc logo, and we’re offering a pair for just £3. This stash works a little differently to the rest. We ask that you fill in the form here <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfhw1noQrYK3ZNP7JyF54DUDAd0R5OxCCr…>, and you can pay us once the socks have arrived.
