Hello everyone! We hope you’ve had a great Fresher’s Week and are looking forward to starting all of your modules next week. Firstly, congratulations! Congratulations to all of the new First Years, new Masters students, new PhD students and to all of our returning members coming back after the summer 🎉 CSS has got lots of plans and we’re keen to get every one of you involved in something fun and interesting to you. As ever, the best places to find out about our activities are [Discord](/discord), [Instagram](/instagram) and [Facebook](/facebook). We’d especially recommend joining the Discord to meet new people and chat with all the rest of us CS students.

If you’ve enjoyed all the events that CSS has put on, or have really enjoyed the vibe of the Discord server, please know that the Committee has tried very hard to make the best events possible. In fact, if you think you have what it takes to do exactly that - our October EGM is the time to start!
54
54
An EGM, or an Extraordinary General Meeting, is a coming together of the members of CSS to discuss changes to our constitution, provide updates on the whole society and (most importantly) allow our members the chance to run for positions on the Committee.
55
55
At this EGM, we’re going to be electing people for the positions of First Year Rep and PGT Rep, replacing our current interim reps. As they are representative roles, you must be a First Year or PGT to run for the respective positions. You’ll need to represent the views of your peer group to the committee as well as helping out running all of our events, chipping in with risk assessments, publicity and planning. The EGM is scheduled for Wednesday the 26th of October and is a great chance to get your voice heard in the organisation of CSS.
