Freshers Fortnight only for medics?

Just got the freshers fortnight passport in the mail today and on the top it says school of medicine, so is every event in the passport exclusive to medics? eg the beach party bop/boat party

I'd assume so. All other courses start lectures the second week, so probably wouldn't be able to make those events :/

it's not fair :cry2:

OP

so what do non medics get?=S

sounds like something I could sneak into

Dogdogdogcat, you're on the blueprints, the rest of you compile a list of the medical freshers and their primary vices and allergies

The freshers fortnight is run by ICSMSU, so is for those doing Medicine, Biomedical Sciences and Pharmacology.

ICU will be running a freshers week ("Welcome Week"), although the ICSM events have a tendency to be better :tongue:

Falmouth Hall organises things for 2 weeks. So do many other halls.

If you can include being sick all over yourself as in the 'better' category.

Apparently Reynolds made a loss last year because people didn't buy enough to drink. Judging by the medics on my floor stumbling home at 6am, they must have been in a minority....

Last year medics started proper lectures on the Thursday of the first week...

Slightly misleading: they made a loss because Wednesday (sports night) and Friday (bop night) are arguably the only nights people frequent the Reynolds en masse. You're friends are definitely not in the minority, judging by the omnipresent smell of snakebite/sick on entering the building for a 9am lecture... :indiff:

Edit: Sorry if it sounds like I've got my head up my own arse - that wasn't the aim. And anyone can go to medic events in theory - I got with a biologist at Roadshow :awesome:

Was just about to say there was a biologist in our drinking circle during the Roadshow. Also met a mathematician during Mums and Dads. Regarding ICSM and Union events, of course they are subjective but I will never forget the immense atmosphere and sound of 300 med students (plus BMS/PTMS ppl) together chanting ICSM and swearing the oath to the phoenix under the roofs of Reynolds. :yep:

Yeh sorry, my implication was that I have no idea how Reynolds could have made a loss given how drunk my friends got. I went once. That was enough for me, I'll tell you that much. If I hear anyone shout 'waterfall' I still cry with fear.
