Activities Fair Success!

The Activities Fair on Sunday 2nd October at Exeter University was a great success with a record number sign-ups!  Societies, organisations, retailers, charities spent the whole day handing out leaflets, encouraging students to sign up to events and societies, talking to students, giving out freebies, and generally putting on a great show for Exeter with some fantastic costumes, decorations and stunts!

The Gender Equality Society was out in full swing showcasing what the society has to offer, giving students a chance to meet committee members and encouraging lots of students to join.  As the Gender Equality Representative I had the chance to talk to students about the purpose of the role and how it helps students as well getting students to fill in questionnaires and quizes and talking about their own concerns and experiences regarding gender at Exeter.  Information gathered will now be used to help give some ideas as to the directions that campaigns should take this year.

Thank you to everyone who joined in.  If you missed out on your chance to sign up or couldn't face the queues for the tills, you can still join online at www.exeterguild.org/societies.
