    it was road safety day at the college, they depicted a car crash and an ambulance/fire brigade response and they had the gardai in at the whitaker theatre with breat testing units and speed detection cameras etc... of course as usual the student union, who i believe organised it, forgot to tell anybody about it and put up posters with zero information

    Bit stupid of them really because some people seemed quite distressed when they saw it.

    yeh it should have been well advertised that it was gonna be a staged accident, i mean its not very hard to send an email out to all students

    even one of my lecturers mentioned how inactive the students union have been in communicating with students, particulary with regards to the pay parking situation

    It involves an alien if that helps, we've been trying to get him in the running for 2 years now :P
    He even had his own Wiki page at one stage, but I think that's gone now. A bebo one too...

    I've only received one e-mail from them and that was just a welcome letter and stuff about being aware of other residents etc.

  • Registered Users Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    One of them came into our film studies screening yesterday to elect class reps for each class. Oh and only within the last two or three days have I seen those road safety posters up around the place.

    If people are "distressed" by it - thats exactly what they want. It's the point of the exercise after all - to scare the ****e out of you..


  • Registered Users Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    Ah yeah but some people were in tears thinking it was someone they knew. Bit harsh all the same. Good idea just poorly advertised.
