Howitt Hall

If you ordered professional photos that were taken at the Gaudy, you will be able to collect your photos from Jess Vince-Moin at 9.30pm in the Ground Floor Common Room, Wednesday, 21st October.

The last Dine In of the year will be held on Tuesday, 6th October from 6pm til 8pm. This includes a FREE two course meal and drinks, with Vegetarian and Halal options. There will also be the presentation of the annual HHS "awards" as well as the HHS elections for 2010. Certainly a night not to be missed. Open to Howitt Residents only.

Enjoy music? Enjoy lots of food? Then come on down to the Ground Floor Common Room (GFCR) at 8pm on Sunday 11th of Oct for both! We will have some amazing acts from our many talented students at Howitt Hall and all this coupled with a Buffet meal of food! We will have scones, pancakes, party pies, strawberries, biscuits and more! Not to mention the cool tunes as well! Interested in performing? Sign up in the GFCR by Friday the 9th of Oct for your chance to show off your skills!

Interested in a society position for 2010? Nominations are now open for society executive positions for the academic year 2010! All positions are available, including President, Vice President, Treasurer and Secretary. Pick up a nomination form from the GFCR and get it returned to Nick in 715 by MIDNIGHT SUNDAY OCTOBER 4. Positions will be elected at the closing dine in on Tuesday the 6th. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to speak with the current office bearers, or Nick before the deadline!

Tired of looking at the same wall on the treadmill at the gym? Tired of looking at the same wall on your seat in your room? Well how about you come for a bike ride to the city! Yes, I know it sounds like a long way, but really, it's not that far (only takes about twice as long as a train ride). And more to the point, the ride is really very nice. With forests and little tunnels you never thought existed, the view is quite exquisite. So get your bikes into gear or borrow one from a friend, find your helmet and sign up in the GFCR. We plan to leave at 11AM ON SATURDAY 19TH OF SEPTEMBER.

Are you a leader in the Hall? Have you ever pictured yourself as one of Howitt's Resident Advisors, or at the helm of Howitt Hall Society?

This Sunday Howitt will hold a Leadership 2010 Information Night.  The panel will include Tracey, Ashleigh, Shannon, your RAs and Howitt Hall Society to tell you exactly what it means to be a leader in the Hall, and give you an opportunity to have all your questions answered. You will also find out how to go about applying to be an RA or nominating for Society. Meet before supper (9pm) on Sunday, 13 September in the GFCR.

The countdown is on to the biggest night in Howitt's calendar, the Annual College Head's Ball - The Gaudy. Tickets to the Gaudy sold out in record time this year, and the evening, themed 007: Black Ties and Diamonds, is all the Hall is talking about.

Thursday night is also the night we have our annual Howitt Hall photograph (which all residents are invited to, whether they are attending the Gaudy or not). The College head hosts a gathering at 6:30pm in the GFCR before we make our way over for the photo.

Academic Mentoring Session – ‘It’s never to late to mend!’
Semester 1 is done and dusted.  How did those results go?

Reckon you could use some help with studying?

If so, you need to come to the Howitt Academic Mentoring session for Semester 2.  Get advice on studying, help with an assignment, or just find out what other people in your course are up to.

So you think you can dance, Howitt? Maybe not yet, but it the near future you will be able to say "oh yeah, I can dance!"** On Monday 24th of August from 8-9:30pm (GFCR) and Wednesday the 2nd of September from 7-8:30pm (MRS Function Room), you will be learning just how you get the right to yell at the top of your lungs, "Oh YEAH, I can dance!" The infamous dance instructor, known only by the dance community as Tim, will be giving all Howittarians a chance to come down and get some free dance lessons.

Hey everyone!

We need YOU to help bring one of Howitt's biggest social events of the year to life. Come along even if you missed the last two meetings. Give your creativity a workout on Tuesday nights, 8pm in the Party Room.

See you soon,
Love Jess Vince-Moin
