AGM Update
The AGM will be held on Friday the 7th of February, at 19:30, in G/001.
As previously mentioned, we will be having our AGM on Friday of week
- The deadline for proposing constitutional amendments has now passed, and one amendment was proposed: that we add the following to the section "Officers":
