Hello everyone, and welcome to Week Two! We have two and (a half; the Geek Nights aren't run by us, but we know the guys who do) events this week, so, read on...
OUCS Tour =========
Tuesday 21st October, 17:30 OUCS
Somewhat of a CompSoc tradition, we'll be having a tour of OUCS' machine room, with several mostly-willing OUCS people on hand to show you around, answer questions, and suchlike.
It's normally a great insight into the bowels of this most important of departments, and offers many great challenges (such as figuring out quite what their naming scheme is).
Meet at the main OUCS entrance on Banbury Road for 17:30; there will be a sign up so you know you're at the right place.
N.B. You must have a valid University Card with you in order to be admitted to the OUCS Building.
Pubmeet =======
Tuesday 21st October, 18:30 (or whenever the tour ends) Lamb and Flag
We'll all be meeting up in the Lamb and Flag for another friendly welcome and introduction to the term and society - it's right after the OUCS tour, so just follow us over the road to the L&F. If you're not at the tour, feel
There will be someone on the look-out for people in case you can't find us, although we're usually quite easy to spot...
Oxford Geek Night 9 ===================
Wednesday 22nd October, 19:30 Jericho Tavern
The Oxford Geek Night isn't a Compsoc event, but is still worth attending; the event consists of two 15 minute 'keynote' talks, followed by several microslots (normally around 5 minutes each).
The event runs at a reasonably relaxed pace, and there's plenty of chance to get a drink from the upstairs bar (note that the whole event is upstairs - don't get confused by the JT looking perfectly normal downstairs that day).
If you want more information, take a look at their website at http://oxford.geeknights.net/2008/oct-22nd/
Hopefully I'll see you at one of them!
