LASER TAG
List of excuses for the vice president losing miserably with minus 26 points
- The president and secretary betrayed their own vice and shot her....repeatedly
- She asked for a truce whilst photographing everybody and they all betrayed her
- She was tired from tirelessly diagnosing patients all day
- She's a pacifist
- She forgot which team she was on....
Crazy Competition, Blinding Lasers and Tiresome Hunting. A great evening to let loose and mark the end of the semester....the president definitely enjoyed the oppertunity to attack that annoying vice.
End of Year Ball 2022/23!
The end of year ball this year took place at kenwood hall and was a fantastic event with a forest theme.
With DJ David's Killer Playlist, a Fantastic 3 Course Meal and a Beautiful Venue the end of year ball brought together all students in the department from different courses and year groups in great style to celebrate the End of a gruelling Year and for many the completion of all their hardwork for their Degrees.

Would I Lie to SHU?
The Would I lie to SHU event was a fantastic event that involved deciept and cunning stories created by the absurd imaginations of the staff and students in the department. The ChemSoc proved that they are indeed the sneakiest science and BioSoc took their first defeat (Just proving we are honest innocent souls)
The True or False anecdotes revealed some absurd facts about the not so innocent academics in the department and revealed the fantastic liars amongst the staff and students (conclusion-Neil could get away with murder)
To Conclude...A great event and some good bullying of some deserving academics...sorry David and Dan...you had it coming.
Well done ChemSoc. (bunch of liars)
SHUniversity Challenge
In the first semester the committee planned the SHUniversity Challenge. An event that pitted the Bioscience gang againest the Chemistry gang in a brilliant competition with staff and students from across the department. The competition included quizzes on music, social media, TV and Film, Logos, Star Wars, World Flags, MJ and IKEA furniture?!... so many random topics for the diverse department of nerds.
It was a brilliant night of competition and teamwork and everyone did brilliantly letting their inner nerd out. Who knew Neil Cross knew so much about birds?! And Dan Kelly knew so little about social media. ("Snapbook" really Dan?!)
But heres the moment everyone was waiting for... Who's the best?....BioSoc. Obviously.
