    Mod warning: Guys, please don't make negative remarks about any person or group of people directly. The SU do a lot of good work and this is one of the busiest weeks of the college year for them.

    Where did you get them? No mention of them on the SU Facebook page nor the MISU website, trying and failing to load the college website now...

    Everyone's probably on it. Look up the student services section. near the bottom of the list it will mention timetables. It's not in the usual place

    Second year history and French are on at the same time. It's supposed to be French and geography and theology at the same time. I turned down psychology to do French and history.

    Hopefully it's a mistake.

    French and history are on the same time for first years I understand. The French department were always complaining g about it. Right too.

    As of last year that was still the way, I presume that it will be the same this year.

    Ummm... anyone waiting on exam results? It says on the si.ul.ie site that they'll be out at noon today but I'm not seeing anything. Would it have anything to do with me being a 4th year? Am I out of the system or anything?

    UL's are definitely out, would it be the same as the usual exam results that ours are out later?

    Is there any place in the college for students to leave suitcases on a Friday instead of dragging bags upstairs for lectures before heading to the train station? It would be ideal if there was such a place.

    The ladies who man the reception desk are absolutely lovely so you might ask them and see if they would mind it for a couple of hours!

    We can't take cases in at the Union Reception due to health, safety and security reasons. We understand the main reception is the same. We advise students that they are free to leave them in the Student Lounge which is covered by CCTV. The Prez and Vice Prez will look into the possibility of a luggage room in the college for a Friday.

    I've heard it's possible to do your FYP on your elective (mine is a geography module) can anyone confirm?

    The best person to ask may be the head of the geography department. I know it's possible to do your FYP on electives such as TEFL, IT and Gender Studies.

    If I remember right from talking to lecturers last year, you can do your FYP on almost anything, but having it relevant to one of your subjects / electives is best as it'll be easier to get help from your supervising lecturer.

    Not 100% on that, but that's the gist I got :)
