O-Yeah! O-Week is coming! It’s a week all about finding your feet at UC, making new friends and getting yourself set up for the year! Or if you’re a returning student just trying to nab as many free pens as possible and ripping into the social program. Currently we’ll be kicking it like…
Speed Friending
University is where you meet the most amount of people in the shortest amount of time. So why not start early this O Week 2017 and join us by having a quick one minute conversation with a complete stranger?! You never know, they might become your new best mate.
