    It's meant to be a nice(ish) ceremony.

    Also! Free Scarf? Why not?

    I'd say the peer mentor thing could come in handy at some stage.

    Oh Sugar! Is that breakfast just for THEM? Crap, I'm science and that's on my timetable but it does say in brackets "(Acturial and Financial Studies)."

    Darn it if it is, I'll be standing an watching everyone else enjoy free food while they hate me... :(:P:confused:

    You don't have to if ya don't want to but its good if you do, most people find it helps.
    its just to try and help you and all the mentors are really nice, sometimes if there is a problem its easier to go to another student
