Varsity XXi is coming. for the 21st year running we’ll be hoping to smash our local (ex-poly) rivals at Coventry ‘university’ with defeats they deserve in over 30 sports. last year was the closest we have ever come to a defeat, with the scores tied going in to the last game - the finale at butts park arena, Coventry - but Warwick eventually walked away 36-34 winners.
this year’s Varsity is going to be bigger & better than ever before. the action kicks off at the end of January with ice hockey at planet ice. the anticipation will grow with netball and basketball matches played in mid february, and the series culminates on Wednesday Week 10, term 2, when over 30 teams will do battle with Coventry, finishing with the epic football finale staged at butts park arena - hopefully this year we’ll have the overall victory sewn up before we all head down to butts, though! Check out warwicksu.com/varsity!
enjoy the rest of term 1, have a great Christmas (anyone going on ski tour - see you in austria!) and we’ll see you in January!

Thinking about housing for next year? Just RELAX - you don’t need to be thinking about housing this early!
There’s plenty of time. It doesn’t matter if the flat next to you is rushing like mad - it just means they’re more likely
to end up in a worse house and paying too much money, in comparison with what you’ll end up with if you wait until at
least the middle of Term 2.

news in briefents survey - we need you!We always strive to make the Union’s services the best they can be, but we can’t do this without your feedback, help and input. With this in mind, we’re currently running an online survey about the SU’s Entertainments Programme to find out what you think of our night-time events.
If there’s something we’re doing that you think could be improved, something we’re not doing that you’d like to see more of or if you have any opinions on events you’ve been to this term, this is YOUR chance to have your say on SU Ents. We’re also giving you the opportunity to tell us who you’d like to see perform at this year’s Summer Party (though perhaps not, as someone suggested, ‘Mumpkin and Sons’. Or Oasis. They’ve split up, you know…)
strictly come dancing at warwick - 2nd december10 couples representing different sports clubs from all over campus have trained hard to pull off some truly show-stopping routines. With dances including the waltz, the cha cha, the quickstep, the samba, the tango, the jive and the paso doble, you can be assured of a great range of entertainment! The judges will only decide half of the final scores, the rest being decided
by the enthusiasm and support of the audience. As Brucee would say, it’ll be nice to see you, to see you nice!
All proceeds go to the READ literacy charity, based at Warwick.
‘iiiiiiiiiiiit’s chriiiiiiiiiiiiiiistmaaaaaaaas…!’ at your unionYes, it’s that time of year when Noddy Holder crawls out of the woodwork, Home Alone pops up on telly and Christmas Specials that were blatantly filmed in mid-June bring the ‘festive’ spirit. But while everyone runs around the shops like headless chickens, here at the Union we’d much rather you treat yourself. Take a look at what we’ve got coming up in the next two weeks to get you in that holiday mood…
In addition to the amazing Christmas Ball in Week 10 (featuring an ice rink, real reindeer, prezzies, snow and much more - see overleaf for more info!), our food and beverage outlets have loads of special treats on offer.
Got something you want to get off your chest? Want to have a moan?Well, in Week 10 we’re asking you to have a rant about it.
We’re here to try to make your time at University the best it can be, so to help us make the biggest difference we can, we need you to tell us what your biggest gripes are.
Think there’s no point? Think we won’t be able to make any difference? As your elected Officers the Sabbatical team can make change happen in your Union and can lobby the University to make a difference.

‘iiiiiiiiiiiit’s chriiiiiiiiiiiiiiistmaaaaaaaas…!’ at your unionYes, it’s that time of year when Noddy Holder crawls out of the woodwork, Home Alone pops up on telly and Christmas Specials that were blatantly filmed in mid-June bring the ‘festive’ spirit. But while everyone runs around the shops like headless chickens, here at the Union we’d much rather you treat yourself. Take a look at what we’ve got coming up in the next two weeks to get you in that holiday mood…
In addition to the amazing Christmas Ball in Week 10 (featuring an ice rink, real reindeer, prezzies, snow and much more - see overleaf for more info!), our food and beverage outlets have loads of special treats on offer.
Got something you want to get off your chest? Want to have a moan?Well, in Week 10 we’re asking you to have a rant about it.
We’re here to try to make your time at University the best it can be, so to help us make the biggest difference we can, we need you to tell us what your biggest gripes are.
Think there’s no point? Think we won’t be able to make any difference? As your elected Officers the Sabbatical team can make change happen in your Union and can lobby the University to make a difference.

policy of the fortnightpolicy 699 – freshers/induction weekUnlike a lot of UK Universities, Warwick doesn’t have a Freshers Week at the start of the year without academic commitments - prompting the Sabb team in 2008/09 to write this policy. It argues that a Freshers Week should be combined with Orientation Week to help all students settle in, socialise and make friends as well as get involved with societies and sports clubs.
Do you agree?

so, it’s Week 9 already! bet you’re amazed at how fast the first term has flown by - i know i am!
Varsity XXi is coming. for the 21st year running we’ll be hoping to smash our local (ex-poly) rivals at Coventry ‘university’ with defeats they deserve in over 30 sports. last year was the closest we have ever come to a defeat, with the scores tied going in to the last game - the finale at butts park arena, Coventry - but Warwick eventually walked away 36-34 winners.
this year’s Varsity is going to be bigger & better than ever before. the action kicks off at the end of January with ice hockey at planet ice. the anticipation will grow with netball and basketball matches played in mid february, and the series culminates on Wednesday Week 10, term 2, when over 30 teams will do battle with Coventry, finishing with the epic football finale staged at butts park arena - hopefully this year we’ll have the overall victory sewn up before we all head down to butts, though! Check out warwicksu.com/varsity!
enjoy the rest of term 1, have a great Christmas (anyone going on ski tour - see you in austria!) and we’ll see you in January!

Thinking about housing for next year? Just RELAX - you don’t need to be thinking about housing this early!
There’s plenty of time. It doesn’t matter if the flat next to you is rushing like mad - it just means they’re more likely
to end up in a worse house and paying too much money, in comparison with what you’ll end up with if you wait until at
least the middle of Term 2.

news in briefents survey - we need you!We always strive to make the Union’s services the best they can be, but we can’t do this without your feedback, help and input. With this in mind, we’re currently running an online survey about the SU’s Entertainments Programme to find out what you think of our night-time events.
If there’s something we’re doing that you think could be improved, something we’re not doing that you’d like to see more of or if you have any opinions on events you’ve been to this term, this is YOUR chance to have your say on SU Ents. We’re also giving you the opportunity to tell us who you’d like to see perform at this year’s Summer Party (though perhaps not, as someone suggested, ‘Mumpkin and Sons’. Or Oasis. They’ve split up, you know…)
strictly come dancing at warwick - 2nd december10 couples representing different sports clubs from all over campus have trained hard to pull off some truly show-stopping routines. With dances including the waltz, the cha cha, the quickstep, the samba, the tango, the jive and the paso doble, you can be assured of a great range of entertainment! The judges will only decide half of the final scores, the rest being decided
by the enthusiasm and support of the audience. As Brucee would say, it’ll be nice to see you, to see you nice!
All proceeds go to the READ literacy charity, based at Warwick.
