Hello All.. As you may have noticed, this is rag week ;) The whole point of rag week is not only to get pissed, but also to raise as much money as possible for the charity which is decided upon, and this year, it's the Irish Cancer Society. As such, redbrick are involved in two major rag week activities, both designed to get as much money as possible out of students pockets, and into Cancer research. They'll both be happening tomorrow. One is the Whelan's event (tickets 4 quid, see orly's mail for full details, but we've organised a great night, and I hope loads of you can come.. I promise you, it will beat standing in a queue for the bar, waiting to be served for 25 minutes from plastic cups), and the other is a charity collection on the ballymun road, and swords road. We are gonna hit peak rush hour traffic tomorrow morning and evening to get as much money as we can from passing motorists on there way to and from work. Collections will be from 7.30am to 9.30am, and from 4.30 to 6.30pm. We need as many volunteers as possible to help us out, so if you feel you can give your bit for charity, please come along tomorrow. There'll be breakfast in it for you, and some bar passes as well to let you skip any bar queues that occur during the week. Anyone that can help, (I know some of you have already volunteered), please please meet at T101 tomorrow morning at 7.20am, and we'll give out t-shirts and collection buckets and the like. This IS important, it's what rag week SHOULD be about, so try and make the effort. The evening collection - we'll meet at about 4.15 at t101, and again dish out buckets and t-shirts. Hope to see lots of you tomorrow morning, I know it's early, but you'll be helping people who are in a worse off situation than ourselves. Thanks in advance, Jon. p.s. get your tickets for whelan's either in the bar from the SU, or in the canteen at the usual times, or ask a committee member. Buses leave at 7.30, there may be a bus strike, so get on our damn coaches :) <<<<<<<<<<<< Jonathan Lundberg - Chairman DCU Networking Soc. >>>>>>>>>>>> <<<<<<<<<<<< Mailto: spock(a)redbrick.dcu.ie | ph: 086 8654994 >>>>>>>>>>>>

*** REDBRICK HAPPENINGS ***

Hello Everyone, A reminder that the Redbrick EGM will take place on Monday 14th in QG15 (ground floor of the Business School) at 6.30pm. We hope to elect a new helpdesk officer to replace Barry O Neill (who has done an excellent job, and been very dedicated in his time on the committee). We also hope to elect our admin team for next year, this is an unusual, but necessary step due to the INTRA program snatching some admins from us. for full details of the proposed constitutional amendment, please read from the redbrick.announce forum on our newsgroup system. As usual, a quorum is required for the meeting, so I'd ask that as many as possible try to attend. Afterwards, it's out for the night to celebrate Valentines Day. Venue: Drumms Emporium. This is next to RiRa's nightclub on Dame Court, which is just off Dame Street opposite Central Bank, or off Exchequer Street if you're coming in that way. Time: after the EGM, about 8pm onwards we'll be in there Cost: A paltry one pound to help cover costs such as music, and food. Pay at the EGM, or at the door. In the spirit of Valentines Day, there is a free mobile phone (worth 139 quid) up for grabs , thanks to Eircell, for whoever we deem to be the most romantic person of the evening. So don't be afraid to let that guy or girl know of your undying love for them, it could get you a phone. :) Any questions? As usual, mail them my way, All the best, see you on Monday! Jonathan.
