Hi friends,

Nomination for the 7^th MSEcomm is still open, if you would like to serve your fellow coursemates and earn some brownie points with your future employers, fill up the form at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dFVJOXA5UU1VT21CMWVsVU9VTFFMOGc6MQ now! The deadline is 26^th August 2012, Sunday.

People often ask why they should run for a position in the committee and I wonder why not. Firstly, being in any committee, no matter how miniscule, is always impressive. Just imagine how it would reflect upon you if your resume stated that you served/represented your fellow coursemates (all 4 levels). Secondly, the commitment is not as heavy as it seems because the cohort is only so big and there are only a few major events in a year. The other administrative work and small scale events will not take up as much time and will be very enjoyable to execute, especially if the exco is chummy and crappy lol. Lastly, if you like bootlicking your professors, being the committee might help you get closer to them teehee.

So stop thinking it through already and fill up the form!

Welcome freshies (and the not so fresh ones) to a wonderful semester of mugging funJ

If you don’t already know, we will be holding our MSE AGM soon enough. That means we will be electing the 7^th MSESIG committee! 

The MSE comm organizes a series of welfare activities throughout the academic year to foster camaraderie among the cohort, and also act as a bridge between the department and the students.

Last year, we organised/assisted in a few milestone events, such as the sale of mse t-shirts, welfare packs giveaway, NUS Open House and our annual get together event: T.G.I.O. It has been a very humbling and enjoyable experience serving our own coursemates and we hope to have enthusiastic fresh blood step up to this challenge.
