I think (I hope) that they're supposed to change several times before the lecures begin.

Hey Funky, doing the same course! Did you go to the Mature student orientation or did you give it a miss? Couldn't find anybody there doing the same language but a few other IBL students alright.

I gave it a miss. Was hoping to get in for some of it yesterday but didn't manage to. Left most things to the last minute so I've tonnes of stuff to sort out this week :P

Well, its a renowned fact that people doing science courses tend to be less involved in the social scene. This also includes discussion forums,that is a proven fact.

Gererally, science people are total nut-jobs. I believe there is no asmosphere in the courses, people are too cought up in finding out what happens in the fantastic world of science :Z

Five 9am starts and finish at 6 on fridays. I think Science Ed wins.

Don't worry there are loads of nursing students, they just wouldn't be the greatest demographic group to be posting on an internet forum.

You see the forum, is full of people who like to talk ****e. So comminications, journalism etc are going to be better represented here.

It's the same with the SU and societies in gererall around DCU.
People doing science courses tend not to be the most popular forum users.
This is because many are quiet wierd indivuals. I once looked into the science building in DCU and I haven't been the same since.

Yeah, I was sitting near the left back wearing a red hoodie. I could have been talking to you for all I know! I was talking to others from psychology, finance and journalism. Good 2 days I thought. You?

..or if you were a girl who turned up slightly late you got given a key because they ran out of locks, and then had to endure jokes about having a penis :mad:

Generally these things are usually some kind of ice breaker, to get people mixing instead of sticking to tiny groups of people they already know.

Im disappointed you guys aren't having a boards meet up. One last year was fun, met lots of people and went to some of the events together.

not too late to organise one yet - anyone know the setup around DCU want to name a place and time - I'd do it but I dunno where anything is so I can't organise :P :P

Its down beside the eurospar and the pharmacy, about a 5 min walk from the college. Haven't been in it in years though.

Jammy

It was good fun!

You meet your first day buddy!

I'm still see my first day buddy....you know who you are....>_>

Hey guys,

I'm Michael from Germany. I'm 22 years old and I'll study software-engineering (full time) at DCU!
I moved to Shanowen Hall about one week ago but didn't really meet new people yet (currently just one of my roommates moved in).
So I'd like to meet some of you. Don't know where the Slipper is. But if anyone marks it on google maps for me I'd be there
Will anyone be in Larkfield tonight?

It might help to know the actual name of the Slipper is Matt Wheldons (or something similar, I may have misspelled the last name) It has a blue front on it. You should go in the side door on the left to go to the back part.

What? Does anyone actually call it that?
