    In THE VENUE on Thursday 10th.
    All Clubs and Socs must send a rep.

    It's extremely important that everyone reads the green writing in the lower left hand corner and understands that this wasn't me.

    It is, however, my desktop background :pac:

    I know it's pretty short notice, but if anyone has a free hour at 12 and is a bit of a elections/politics nerd or just wants to know more, there's a talk on the general election on in CS2.
    ELECTION 2011 - All you Need to Know
    A one hour discussion session devoted to the upcoming general election. Amongst the issues to be considered will be the nature and ideosyncracies of Ireland's PR-STV voting system; the battles being waged in close-fought constituencies; what campaigning has been like in the election, and the challenges facing a new administration. All are welcome.

    Speakers: Dr. Adrian Kavanagh (Geography); Dr. Mary. Murphy (Sociology); Prof. Mary Corcoran (Sociology) and Dr. John O'Brennan (Sociology).
    Where and when: CS2, North Campus, Tuesday, 22 Feb 2010, Noon.

    That'd be worth it to see Adrian Kavanagh speak. Legend of a man.

    I wanted to go but I had a French lecture clashing.

    French Society have begun a "Club Francophone" - 2 hours a week of French speaking for anyone who wants to practice their French with others. Also, we are having a French debate against Trinity next month, hope to beat them in their backyard.

    The Socialist Workers Student Society are having their first meeting of the year tomorrow, Thursday at 5pm in Meeting Room 2 in the Students Room. The title of the talk is Marx and the Alternative to Capitalism. Keiran Allen from UCD's sociology department has written a book with that title and will be speaking about the book and socialism in general and what we do as a society.

    Anyone who has an interest in left-wing politics, socialism or political activism should come along, we'll also head in for a few beers in the SU afterward and it'll be a bit of craic!
