Welcome back to Oxford, and another year with OUPS!
OUPS returns with a new committee to bring you an exciting year of academic talks, socials, career events and flagship events to fill your year with excitement, opportunity, and a break from all your hard work.
As we know (too well) that Trinity Term can be stressful and overwhelming at times, we’ve prepared a lineup of relaxing events this term for you to come and unwind in between revision sessions. Alongside our exciting set of speakers for the term starting with Pablo P. Boix in Week 1, look out for Destress with OUPS in Week 2, our Picnic Social in Week 3, and our tried and trusted Cafe Study Social in Week 4.
It’s been wonderful meeting many of you at our events over the last year; your attendance truly makes the society what it is. I look forward to seeing many familiar faces again, and welcoming even more new ones over the coming terms!
Warmest regards,
Alex Rathour & the Committee
