The Stand
For students, by students 

Safeword Bop, the so-called kinkiest night of the year, returned this Friday at Club 601. It acts as the culmination of the university’s annual and aptly named SHAG (Sexual Health Advice and Guidance) week.

If I asked you which events are essential for any Fresher’s first week in the Bubble, you’d probably suggest something like Sinners or Starfields.

However, the flashing lights and thumping music of a club is most certainly not the best atmosphere for making friends. That’s why I suggest Karaoke Night, which is too often overshadowed by the the week’s headline events.
