1. Pre-Departure Talk 2016
Hello everyone,

Imperial, and to introduce them to the ICSS community. The details for PDT
are as follows:

not! You are still welcome to join us at PDT, so stay tuned for sign-ups in
the next few weeks!
In addition, if you have any juniors or friends whom you know to be joining
Imperial the next academic year, do invite them to the *Facebook group* HERE

2. Karanguni 2016
Hey everyone,
Thanks for the overwhelmingly positive response to our *ICSS Karanguni 2016
<http://union.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=d91a1cb130f12317830464586&id…>
* initiative so far. We truly hope the platform has allowed Singsoc members
across different batches to connect and buy/sell their items with ease
amidst all the summer housing chaos!
While we eagerly await the freshers of 2016, here's an opportunity for YOU
to do something totally awesomesauce! If you intend to get rid of certain
household items (pots, pans, cutlery etc.) but aren't able to sell it on
Karanguni, do consider *donating the items* to the incoming freshers to
ease their transition to London life. If you're interested to donate or
just to find out more, contact any of the exco members or drop
admin(a)ic-singsoc.net an *email* and we'll follow up with more details on
collection and distribution of these items. Your small contribution would
definitely make a big difference to the incoming freshmen!
Your karanguni man,
Nathanael
