Welcome to Michaelmas

Welcome

Oxford Media Society would like to welcome all freshers descending on Oxford this week, and welcome back everyone else.

If you're interested in media, are considering a career in journalism or marketing or simply like to listen to inspiring people, then Oxford Media Society will be right up your street. We organise speaker events that connect all students passionate about the industry.

If you would like to know more, visit our stall at Freshers' Fair (we will be based in South Schools), pick up our termcard or drop us an email (oxfordmediasoc@gmail.com). Our seven great speakers for the term ahead are listed on the tab to the right of this post.

Some additional information below:

Dinner with one of the speakers

We offer opportunities to dine with each one of our speakers. Before each event, we take the speaker for a dinner (either formal hall or restaurant) along with Media Society members. If you would like to attend, email oxfordmediasoc@gmail.com with the subject "[Name of speaker] Dinner" and name the speaker you would like to meet. We will inform you whether you have a spot a week before the event. (Please note that Oxford Media Society provides only the opportunity to have dinner with the speaker. We cannot pay for the dinner itself.)

Joining the Committee

If you would like to form part of the committee in Hilary & Trinity term 2011 (each position is held for two terms), please e-mail oxfordmediasoc@gmail.com with the subject "Committee" to register interest. You should also attend at least three of our events this term. We will be sending application information to all those who are interested at the beginning of 6th week.

Our membership fee is only £10 for a year or £2 per event. Considering that this Michaelmas we have seven events, you will definitely get back more than your money's worth!
