RESS is hosting its annual National Engineering Month Pub Night, and this year we’re going hard, greek style.

Come join us for an all-ages, free and fabulous night of shenanigans. Togas are not required, but I’m sure you’ll feel mighty silly without one.

EVERYONE IS WELCOME

HOW TO TOGA? | HOW TO FACEBOOK EVENT?

Oh look, a facebook event.

It’s almost time for the RESS annual general meeting, where amendments to the Bylaws and Constitution are made.

If you would like to submit an amendment, please use this form. Submit it to vpadmin@ress.ca by 11:59 pm on Wednesday, March 14th for inclusion in the meeting. You can find the current By-laws and Constitution in the documents section.

Look forward to an announcement of a date and time for the AGM. It’s an important way to have your say in how RESS is run and give feedback on the year, so all are encouraged to attend.

You read that right. UoIT is hosting RESS and York Engineering in their very own nooner. You can find some information here. They also have a facebook event!
