Socials

At UTS:Law

By Georgia Dixon Vice President of Activities

University isn’t just about studying. It is also about going to events, having fun and making lifelong friendships. The friends you make at law school are the people that get you through late night study sessions, difficult assignments and boring lectures.

For me, now starting my fourth year, most of my closest friends are students I met in my first year of uni through the LSS, and partly why I value LSS social events so highly. To facilitate the social side of uni, the UTS LSS puts on a whole host of different events throughout the year to get you out of the library and enjoying your time at uni. From Start of Semester Party, to Law Cruise, to Law Ball and a few others in between, there are socials events to suit every single person. For first year students, I couldn’t recommend First Year Law Camp more highly, particularly if you don’t know any other students. It is a fun three day weekend away on an island with activities and parties to help everyone settle into uni and make new friends. My camp was a highlight of my time at university and an invaluable opportunity to meet new people. It is also great fun as it is organised by older students - not the staff! This year we are also planning to host our first Law Revue. A revue is a comedy show that involves lots of hilarious skits, singing, dancing and music. So if you are creative, like acting, singing or dancing, can play an instrument, or are interested in writing funny sketches, keep your eyes peeled on our Facebook page for sign-ups. Whether you’re a first year looking to meet new friends or a seasoned fifth-year looking to make some unforgettable memories, our 2020 social events are here to help make this year the best yet.
