HT1 Newsletter: HT TERM CARD, Welcome Dinner, Games Night, Competitive Programming + More!! 

Greetings all, 

What better way to begin the term than by joining us and the Oxford University Chemistry and Biochemistry Society on Thursday at Pho for our welcome dinner.

However, if coding is more your scene, make sure to check out the Competitive Programming Lockout Contest on Monday of Week 2.

We'll also be joining the Oxford Biological Society for a game night at Wadham College on Saturday.

What a way to start Hilary term!

Competitive Programming: Lockout Contest

Join us for a fun contest where you and other participants race to be the first one to solve each problem!

Snacks will of course be provided, and there will be opportunities afterwards to socialise with other participants!
