Hi, We are a group of final year sports science students. As part of our business module, we have to develop a new business idea. We were wondering if you could circulate this survey to all the members of your club/society to help us with the development of our app. The survey link is https://www.surveymonkey.com/collect/?collector_id=76697791 There are only a few questions and we promise it will only take 1 minute to complete! Thank you in advance, Julia, Cliona and Ali.

[Engsoc-Committee] FREE MONEY
by Brid Browne 28 Oct '15

28 Oct '15

*Hey everyone! I was asked by Student Recruitment to pass this on. It's a great opportunity, definitely worth a look!* Dear Clubs and Soc's, I am emailing you from the student recruitment office in DCU where we organise the DCU open days. I am currently looking for clubs and socs to get involved in open days by being here on campus on Friday 20th & Saturday 21st Nov in the hub either at a stand talking to prospective students about your activities and or giving a showcase of what it is you do. We would want Clubs and Socs to be at their stand from about 10am - 2.30 each day (Fri & Sat) and we will be paying each society 150 euro for taking part. Open days attract about 8-9k students on campus across the two days and are a great way to recruit next years potential DCU students in advance. Please reply to me directly if you are interested in taking part? I hope to hear from as many as you as possible. Many Thanks, *Lauren Quinn Taylor School Liaison Office* Dublin City University | Dublin 9 | Ireland Tel: +353 1 7006846 | email: lauren.quinntaylor(a)dcu.ie

[Engsoc-Committee] The Slipper Wants to Help You!
by zach corish 19 Oct '15

19 Oct '15

Hi There, My name is Zach and I am working for The Slipper Bar (Formally Matt Weldons) which is situated right beside the Spar across from the DCU entrance on the ballymun road. I am also a final year business student in DCU at the moment so understand the need for a cheap night out near to DCU instead of the NuBar. We have had a few societies (Big & Small ones) from DCU who come into our lounge where they have a society night/s for themselves including DCU Force Rugby, Game Soc, Sub Aqua Club Soc and St Pats GAA to name a few. At the moment we are trying to promote the Lounge Bar for student only nights/days whether it be DCU, St Pats, D.I.T. etc so they can have nights to themselves whether it is through clubs or socs or just a group for a birthday, fundraiser, quiz etc. An added bonus the lounge bar rent out fee is completely free no matter what size of the crowd coming. We can provide live music on the night or if you prefer your own music we can create a spotify playlist for you or if not follow you. We can also provide hot and cold food to cater for your hungry student needs. Drink deals can also be had on the night at very competitive prices to anywhere in the city or Northside of Dublin if not better. Just to let you know there may be a possible student night happening which I will inform you about in due course. If you are interested in finding out any more information on reserving the room/drink deals or even just to get a tour or to ask a few questions you can email me back or contact me on 0879167284 (You will get me quicker with a call). Our social media is in maintenance at the moment so apologies for the lack of info online. In the mean time call over when ever to the lounge to avail of student deals any night you would like. Hope to hear from you soon. Zach Corish The Slipper Bar.
