In October, the Union discussed the issues surrounding the FIFA World Cup hosted in Qatar and the conflict with our organisational views. We agreed that Qatar's deplorable abuse of human rights and treatment of minority groups does not align with our values.
We are showing the FIFA World Cup 2022 in our venues as we know that a large number of our members want to watch and support their national teams compete in the competition, and want to do so in our venues which are operated for them. We also recognise that the hosting of the tournament in Qatar is controversial and has raised significant criticism internationally.
The 2022/23 academic year is upon us, and we are at the start of what will hopefully be the most ‘normal’ year we’ve had in a while. This doesn’t necessarily mean that things will be exactly as they were pre-pandemic, but it does mean that you should be able to expect the same parts of the student experience as before all the disruption.
It's the largest event in the Welcome Week calendar and gives you a chance to explore all things ICU! Meet our societies and the students that run them, find activities that make your heart sing (or actually sing!) and discover projects to channel your passions 💖
There will be exclusive deals to get your hands on, plus you may be able to take home a few freebies…👀 🍕
