A huge thank you to all of you who attended this year's AGM on Thursday. We had a really good turn out, reaching and surpassing the quorate of 150 with 179 students in attendance.
All the motions were passed ... the most important of which was the adoption of a new Constitution.
52 pages down to 12 - definititely a change for the better!

So thanks to all and well done!

AGM!!!

VERY IMPORTANT!

This Thursday 11th October at 5.30 is the Annual General Meeting, held in the Main Hall.

AGM happens once a year and forms an IMMENSELY important part of the SU calendar, as this is where YOU, Brookes students, get to decide how the union is run.

If you want to make things happen, and see progress, make sure you are at the AGM!

Arrival time:5:15pm
Start: 5:30pm

All students are very welcome to attend and take an active part in the meeting.

We'll be discussing how the Students' Union spends it's money, choosing the RAG charities and so on.

This year we'll have guest speakers as well:

- Diversity? @ Brookes by the ACS society President!
- Islamofobia by the Islamic Society

Evening refreshments provided: Pizza & Ethical Water*

The Agenda will be published on Thu 4th Oct

* The water supports building water pumping systems overseas which will improve people’s lives by providing free, clean water.

Brookes Union Music Extravaganza

As you can see from my objectives this year I am organising a Union Trip specifically aimed at our performance societies so they can showcase themselves in another country!
Initial plans have been started but I would love some input from you on areas, ideas and requirements for the trip.
Let me know what you all think as then we can have a really successful, enjoyable time whilst showing off your talent!
Please get in contact via facebook or obsu.activities@brookes.ac.uk Thanks!

Bryony France is standing next to me as we discuss the aesthetics of our blogs... hmmm.
