Socials
A normal semester in LUUSAG would consist of two socials weekly – one, a chilled pub lunch in Old Bar, and the other a varying activity. Unsurprisingly, this year is slightly different to any before it, so many of our socials will be moving online.
Currently, we are meeting as a society every Tuesday at 7:30pm for a range of virtual social events, from online board games and scavenger hunts to origami and cordial making. For up all the latest updates from LUUSAG, including events and socials, please head to our Facebook group.
SSAGO also has an extremely active Discord server, with channels on almost any topic you can think of (badges from home, LGBTQ+, Animal Crossing, arts and craft, get active and the list goes on).
SSAGO Events
Teams around the country are working on this year’s national events, including alternative plans if in-person events aren’t authorised.
SSAGO run three national rallies (weekend-long camps) annually. LUUSAG attended this year’s first rally, which was hosted virtually by Southampton in November. The next national event is ‘Green Rally Yellow Rally’ in March 2021, hosted by a group of friends from universities around the country (including our own Secretary, Harriet). We are still crossing our fingers for an in-person rally in Wales in the summer.
There is also an annual ball, which is an opportunity to trade in our hoodies and hiking boots for dresses, suits and ties for a night. This year’s ball has unfortunately been postponed until Autumn 2021.
