The term card for Easter 2012 is here! (click image to open pdf)

It includes all the events organised by the Borderer and SBR committee, as well as some which are organised by college. Just so you can plan ahead :) Also, watch this space for updates about the joint bop with King’s and Caius for which we are still finding a date.

And remember, if you have any ideas for events or want to organise one, don’t hesitate to get in touch with the SBR committee!

SBR Mardi Gras Party, Monday 20 February 9pm!

Posted February 18th, 2012 by SBR Committee

Come join the SBR in celebrating Mardi Gras New Orleans-style next Monday, Feb. 20!

BA Table will have a special New-Orleans themed menu.  After Hall we will head to the SBR for a party featuring brass-band music and the famous New Orleans favourite, the ‘HURRICANE’ COCKTAIL mixed by our own native New Orlineanian, and expert mixologist, Nick Courtney. Guaranteed to be the most delicious – and least expensive – cocktail in Cambridge that night!

COSTUMES are encouraged, especially MASKS and bright colors.

SBR elections 2012 – we need you

Posted February 14th, 2012 by SBR Committee

Another year has rolled around and it is time for new SBR leadership. Elections for the presidency and 4 committee positions will take place on Friday 2 March.

Acting as SBR president is a special privilege, giving one access to the inner operations of the College and a chance to make a difference in the College and University. Serving on the committee does as well.

To run you must be a graduate student who will still be working towards a degree next year. Two other graduate students must support your candidacy. Nominations will be open from today until Saturday 25 February, and can be made by signing a sheet posted on the bulletin board in the SBR or emailing the returning officer, Michael Carroll mjc232@cam.ac.uk. Candidate statements should be submitted to Michael by Sunday 26 February. Hustings will be held at 9pm on Monday 27 Febuary in the SBR and elections will take place online the following Friday, 2 March.

Anyone who would like more information or has any questions of any sort should please feel free to contact David Waddilove (dpw24), who is happy to meet or respond via email as you please.
