THE PROGRAMME 2018/19
Dear University of Manchester students, We, at the Students’ Union, want you to make the most of every week on campus. So we’ve hand-selected some of the best student events and opportunities from September to December just for you. In this programme you can find out how to: • Join societies and make friends from all over the world • Volunteer and campaign for causes you care about • Discover new interests and find your place in the community • Enjoy great food, entertainment, and cracking nightlife (Don’t forget to find time to study!) And these 52 pages aren’t all… new events are added to manchesterstudentsunion.com/events every day. If there’s something you want to add and put on, please come and speak to one of us! We hope you have a good semester, Love the 2018/19 Exec Team
