Come celebrate physicists’ vast collection of useless facts in the PSS’s first ever trivia night!
Running on Monday of week 10 this semester, we’ve booked out the Clyde Hotel (a 45 second run from the Physics building). This gives you the potential be one of about 80 lucky students to join in the games, drinks, trivia and PRIZES!

To welcome you all back for Semester 2, we’re having another Physics Students’ Society BBQ!
- Date: Monday 17th August 2009
- Time: 1pm – 2pm
- Venue: Physics Courtyard (under the ramp leading up to the Physics Podium)
There’ll be sausages, veggie burgers, soft drink and beer!
As always, this is a free for all PSS members, and new members are welcome to join on the day, so bring along your friends.
The Physics Students’ Society is planning an excursion to the open weekend at Parkes Radio Telescope, to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the first moon landing in July 1969 as well as the International Year of Astronomy 2009.
- Dates: 17 – 20 July 2009. (This is the 2nd last weekend of the holidays.)
The plan is to drive up to Parkes by car convoy on Friday 17th July, spend two days in Parkes and visit the telescope, and then return to Melbourne on July 20th.
The total cost of the event will be approximately $100 + food. This is primarily the cost of 3 night’s accommodation at Parkes. The Student Union will be substantially subsidising the cost of driving to Parkes, by an amount that will depend on numbers.
If you are interested in coming, please send us an email expressing your interest with the following details:
- Name
- Email address
- Student number
- Mobile number
- If you can bring a car (and if so, the number of seats including the driver)
- Details for someone we can contact in an emergency (name & phone number)
So we can book the accommodation in advance, registrations will close at 12 PM on Thursday 11th June. We’ll need an upfront deposit of $90 so we can secure accommodation.
We’re having another Physics Students’ Society BBQ!
There’ll be sausages, veggie burgers, maybe even some bread; as well as soft drink, beer and cider. We’re also going to be trying to sell you our wonderful purple shirts and sign you up to our various road trips, study groups and other such club events.
The BBQ will start at around 12:30 this Friday afternoon (22nd May), and rock on until 2:00. Same as last time, the venue will be the Physics Courtyard (the BBQ area under the ramp leading to the Physics Podium). It’s free for all PSS members, and new members are welcome to join on the day.
Now’s the perfect opportunity to rope in any friends interested in joining. Spread the word, too; we can never be completely sure that everyone’s going to check their email in time — no matter how freakishly nerdy they are.
- Date: Friday, 22nd May 2009
- Time: 12.30 — 2.00 PM
- Venue: Physics Courtyard
Hope to see you there!
Welcome to the Physics Students’ Society for 2009! We thought there was no better way to get the year rolling than with a free barbecue for all our members. Details are as follows:
- Date and Time: Monday, 23rd March from 1 PM until 2 PM
- Venue: Physics Courtyard (under the stairs leading to the Physics Podium)
The barbeque is free for all PSS members, and we’ll have sausages, veggie burgers and soft-drinks available, so come along, enjoy a nice lunch and have a chat to other members of the society.
For the students who signed up as members at the inaugural general meeting last year, your memberships have now lapsed as per the Clubs and Societies membership regulations. Membership for the Physics Students’ Society in 2009 is just $2 for Union members and $5 for everyone else. You’re welcome to come and renew your memberships at the BBQ.
See you there!
