absolutely anything.. last year ppl were casual, formal or in fancy dress..

the summer ball is the main formal event (it'll probably be something like june 3rd)

Thank you, I was very very confused...and now am confused also. Maybe fancy dress would be the best idea! :-)

Am I right in remembering that the Fresher's "Ball" was just that party where they opened up the whole of the union last year?

If so, don't be confused by the name - casual is the way forward.

formal as in a dress, or just smart going out clothes?

Formal as in a dress. I wore my college leavers' ball dress and didn't look too out of place but a lot of the girls were in more clubby type dresses.

I'm pretty sure you won't be denied access to any union events for not wearing a dress (Intro Party is pretty casual anyway) and I take it as a general rule that any bar/club with a dresscode isn't worth bothering with, so I think you'll be fine.
