CIMR Newsletter
2nd December 2015
Here Comes Christmas
Good evening good students of CIMR. Firstly, an apology. These newsletters should have been sent out every Sunday evening, and for the last two Sundays it hasn't happened. I'm sorry to those of you who were bitterly disappointed. However, given the warm reception of the first issue (and thank you to many of you for sharing your approval), the incentive to keep producing these publications is clear, and therefore you will be receiving the newsletter each Sunday from now on.
More excitingly, Christmas is approaching. The CIMR is audibly buzzing with Christmas jolliness. From festival jumpers to strings of colourful Father Christmas lights, people seem to be getting into the Christmas spirit. Hurray. Good for us. Keep it up.
This issue of the newsletter contains a notice from me regarding the new student noticeboard (EXCITING TIMES!), some messages from Welfare Alex regarding welfare, a reminder from Sporty TomO regarding the Frank Lee 5-a-side for January, an important notice about 2016 Young Person's Retreat from Academical Stephen, and Social notices from Sociable Silvia and Samiha.
So yo-yo-yo (as in ho-ho-ho) should read on!

Student Noticeboard
Floating along the North, East, West, and South corridors of the many levels of the CIMR is the rumour that there is due to be a student noticeboard. Indeed, I've notice many people clustering in groups whispering frantically, which I can only assume to be regarding the noticeboard.
Here, I confirm those rumours. It is going to be on the wall outside the Sackler Lecture Theatre outside the canteen next to the other board.
The future is bright.
Please rejoice.
