Socials @ UTS Law

Written by Lucie Vayriot Vice-President (Activities)

Welcome to the UTS LSS! You have made an excellent decision in choosing UTS, as we are a Law School like no other. Unlike other Law Schools, the UTS LSS will help you maximise your time at university by hosting unmissable events that cater to any and all of your social interests.

What do we offer?

The Socials Portfolio organises exceptional events that provide students with invaluable opportunities to meet like-minded people, take a break from studying, and make lifelong memories.

2022 saw the return of our most-loved initiatives after two years of Covid-19, as well as the implementation of new events. The events which ran in 2022 included:

Law Ball

First Year Law Camp

What to expect in 2023?

Moving into 2023, the Socials Portfolio is looking to be bigger and better than ever. You can expect a return of our 2022 events in a new and improved style. Furthermore, there will be Interfaculty and even Intervarsity events to help you meet people from all sorts of degrees and universities. With something for everyone, the Socials Portfolio will be your one-stop-shop for keeping a work-life balance in 2023, whilst forming friendships along the way.

Where to find information about our events?

Karaoke Night

The Socials Portfolio always aims to host our events at some of Sydney’s most-loved venues. From Cargo Bar to Bungalow 8, and Scary Canary to Side Bar, a fantastic atmosphere is guaranteed. We also hire professional DJs and photographers to make your time all the more memorable.

Our events always sell out quickly, so it is vital that you keep up to date to avoid missing out. The best way to do so is by following our Facebook, Instagram and Tik Tok. Or, if social media isn’t for you, be sure to regularly check your emails for the UTS LSS fortnightly newsletter entitled ‘The Buzz’, or the UTS LSS website.

Tips and tricks for making the most of your degree

As much as people say it, your time at university really is what you make of it. I highly recommend you take every opportunity as it comes and put yourself out there. Make friends in your classes, go on coffee catch-ups, organise study groups and most importantly, attend our events! After all, the people you meet at university will be your peers for the next few years. I speak from experience when I say that the people you meet in your first year not only lighten the load of a Law degree, but also have the potential of becoming your lifelong friends.
