What a scorching week! If you've come along to O'Week in this heat, thanks for joining in and making the effort. We've still got plenty more events on through the week, so check them out on the O'Week planner and the AUU website, but make sure to take care in the heat, too. Don't forget that the Hub will host Market Day tomorrow, and every Wednesday during the semester - for more information, check here. Finally, it's a good idea to check MyUni for course info and to familiarise yourself with it. Good
luck for week one!
