Oxford Brookes Freshers Megathread 2017!

anyone know where we can find info on events happening during freshers week?

hey, do we need to apply for the bus pass if we are living in the halls e.g. clive booth ? Or, do I get i automatically when I arrive?

You need to apply online. Link should be on PIP.

There are a lot of unofficial events happening during Freshers' week, too, that aren't on the Brookes SU page. Some look better than the official offerings to me, if only because they don't want £75 to get in!

I can probably knock up a list, given time.

I was thinking more stuff on during the day because I don't drink RIP

my condolences

Stuff on during the day? Fresher's fair is on the 22nd, not sure about any other day stuff. I don't drink either, though, so if I see anything listed around town that catches my eye, I can let you know.

Are you looking for anything in particular?

not really, I've just heard from people that go to other unis that they have other stuff on during fresher's week other than the usual.

Everything I've seen announced so far is club nights, basically. There's nothing special on in the daytime that doesn't happen all year round though, that I know of. That said, I know the city fairly well having lived here most of my life. I'd be happy to give you a guided tour if there's nothing else happening :-)

do you happen to know of any good vegan places in oxford?

@fionnghualah I just looked into it and there's an open air cinema thing on the 24th at 18:00. It's not daytime, but it seems to be the only event on (excepting the halls welcome parties) that doesn't completely revolve around a theme of "let's get paralytic!"
