The newly updated Freshers Guide for 2006 is out now, download it here.

We've all been there before, arriving at the Cambridge station with a trunk so huge that we can hardly move, feeling thrilled, strange and maybe a little bit shaky. The first formal, the first pub crawl, the first taste of punting….Freshers' week is a unique experience that lasts long in our memories. And next term, you have a unique chance to buy propecia forge the memories of the new international freshers! If you have some time to spare from 28th Sept to 1st Oct, and would like to help out with our freshers' week events, please email your Name, College, Subject and Nationality to Cindy/Jay at either hr251@cam.ac.uk or ycj20@cam.ac.uk. If you do enough shifts, you will get a free CUSU International T-shirt. Drop down your name, and make someone's day memorable!
