Musicwise I'd like to see Chase and Status, Pendulum, Hadouken, The Prodigy, Faithless, Katy B, Professor Green, Example, NERO, Magnetic Man etc. I'm sure there are a lot more I'd like to have on the freshers week, but these came straight from the top of my head.
Tinie Tempa please

To be honest,I think students appreciate anything thats free,so any kind of freebies would be kool.:biggrin:
I'd like to see drunk midgets. But this is what I'd like to see all the time, not just at a freshers' fair.

Hahahaaa, yeah, I hear music tastes are very important when studying psychology, I'll make sure to include that when I beg them to let me in on results day :wink:

Good luck!

In all serious for freshers I would like to see at one of the fairs financial planners to help prospective students ease into university as it'll be their first time living alone for most. A lot of early mistakes are made before Christmas that are so much harder to rectify down the line. Sound financial guidance and I must stress it is -Independant- as well not hawking bank accounts/credit cards/loans. This theoretically should be arrangeable with the Citizens Advice Bureau.

Along the lines of 'first time living alone' chef demonstrations of quick and easy student meals (possibly tie in with supermarket/cook book here?) would be immensely helpful as I've seen multiple threads on here talking about cooking and complaining about housemates cooking.
