Vinta81

Lia_lia

Yay! This year I can actually enjoy it. Last year I was working in the bloody loft all day/night for it.

Oh good, its back. I dont' think I could enjoy it last year as I had an exam or something.

Probably something else come up this year :rolleyes:

Glico Man

Same with me, had a major project due last year and guess what.... I have one this year too :mad:

Not to mention my dissertation... which I mention pretty much every time I come onto the CIT thread

Damn 4th year...there's far too much work

Yes Christmas Day is back this year on November 26th, it will take a very different guise to previous as we cannot use campus facilities.

I am meeting An Garda Siochana this week to discuss the plans, followed by meetings with residents.

CIT Students' Union are running the day this year to ensure the safety of all students.

I never once in the 4 years had the dinner. You want to be there extremly early and queue for hours. Great dinner though apparently.

smileygirlloves

you never had it:O:O .......well no we avoided the queues and headed to the btown for dinner....savaage food and no queues....eventually all the others follow there.....early seats for the dAY:)

I think I used get texts before too and I was only in that place once very drunkenly before in 2nd year. Once in 4 years! - I'm really not a standard CIT studeent am I. But then again, I'm living out in college road next UCC so its bit of a way out, the B Town.

smileygirlloves

well i dont reali go to the btown only for christmas dinner and the odd class party:D:D

Webmonkey

It's a nice place though apparently. I cannot remember much from the night I was there, just remember a lot floors or something!

smileygirlloves

they have nice food alrite....but as i mainly to parties there i generally dont take notice of the surroundings!!!! I just know where they serve food well:D

CIT xmas which the college has nothing to do with? Hmmm sounds like its gonna be another fun filled day of people pissing in sinks, riding in auld widows gardens, lying on the road dressed in black and santa handing out pointess sh1t.

If you can ensure a safe xmas day, your talents are wasted here. You should go to the middle east, you'd probably be able to sort that whole Jewish/Sunni/Shi'te thing in a few hours.

For a few too many people CIT xmas day is all about getting too drunk, getting obnoxious and doing whatever the hell you want, and its not just contained to the b'town area.

I cant wait to hear your plan, or even what you're going to say to the residents.

Macca07

From someone who has worked in a pub for CIT XMas day for the last 4 years, I am soooo happy I won't be working there this year!!!!!

It is mayhem, absolute mayhem!!
I'm very suprised the SU are even trying to go ahead with it.

CIT lecturers will be advised (told) to had out assignments and have the due day for the following day, thats what happened last year

Gotta love electronic submission!

Gotta love not having submissions due for then

The Post had the best idea last year. Free tickets to locals and whatnot. Place was still packed but not over the top.

Queues outside the BTown at half 11 last year. Shkyboys.

I can't say I'm happy to see that this excuse for our college to utterly embarrass itself has returned. If ever CIT has lived up to the "C**ts in Tracksuits" designation, it's on our Xmas day.

Ya and I guess they'll be doing the same this year. I'll find out and let ye know. But if you just wanna cause havoc for the day best just head on down to BTown Bar

evil-monkey

Lads are ye sure CIT Xmas day is back? The eMail from the registrar sent out to us all just now would suggest it isn't.

Can anyone confirm that next week will be an OFFICIAL CIT SANCTIONED Xmas day? Or is it just the Btown Bar and Co running their own one, as was the case last year?

Lia_lia

One of my lecturers told me today that it is being run by the SU but that does NOT mean classes are officially cancelled.

We have a presentation from 9-2 on Thursday morning, great.

Good luck with it. I really don't think CIT would back such a day anymore considering what a terrible reputation the college has gained from it previous years.

Webmonkey

Ok confirmation

CIT Mail wrote:

The CIT position on this matter is quite clear. Thursday November 26th is a normal college day in CIT. All class timetables will run as normal in terms of lectures, practical and workshop sessions, laboratories etc. Any Continuous Assessment scheduled for the day will continue as normal and will not be rescheduled. Friday November 27th is also a normal college day here in CIT.

Can't wait for it!!! Last year wasn't allowed into any of the student accoms... I'll be there bright and early this year
